Real-Life Earth Science Vol 3 GLACIOLOGY CONCEPT HOW IT WORKS I CE Ice, of course, is simply frozen water, and though it might appear to be a simple subject, it is not. Glaciologists classify differing types of ice, for instance, with regard to their levels of density, designating them with Roman numerals. The ice to which most of us are accustomed is classified as ice I. We will not be concerned with the other varieties of ice in the present context, but it should be noted that the ice in glaciers is quite different from the ice in an ice cube or even the ice on a pond in winter. These differences are a result of massive pressure, which reduces the air content of the ice in glaciers. G LACIOLOGY AND G LACIERS Despite the wide distribution of ice on Earth and the many forms it takes, the work of most glaciologists is concerned primarily with ice as it appears in glaciers. A glacier is a large, typically moving mass of ice on or adjacent to a land surface. It does not flow, as water does; rather, it is moved by gravity, a consequence of its extraordinary weight.

Since MAP (Middle Atmosphere Program) (l982-85), various instruments have been used to analyze atmospheric constituents, radiation, and the dynamics of the stratosphere and mesosphere. These include meteorological sounding rockets, laser radar, and an infrared spectrometer. A five-year program was conducted from l987 to l99l mainly at Syowa Station and in the surrounding sea ice as part of the Antarctic Climate Research (ACR) project. The purpose of this research was to study year-to-year variations of the Antarctic atmosphere and sea-ice-atmosphere interaction. The program consisted of satellite data acquisition (NOAA data from l980 and MOS-1 from l989), observations of clouds and precipitation, observations by several newly established automatic weather stations, and monitoring of minor atmospheric constituents such as CO , CH

Way Up North Notes by an American Fulbrighter in Northern Norway February Travel Spring Field Work Glaciology Course Last week I returned from Svalbard after taking a month long course in glaciology at the University Centre in Svalbard (UNIS). This course was designed to be a month long, intensive study of glaciology for students at the Masters or PhD level in the fields of physical geography or glacial geology. The month long course was divided into 4 themes: glacier systems, mass balance and Svalbard glaciers, glacier dynamics, and glacier modeling. Each theme was taught by an expert in that specific subfield. The teaching staff consisted of Doug Benn, Jon-Ove Hagen, Tavi Murray, Nick Hulton, and Ian Rutt. Overall this course provided a good overview to the current state of glaciology. In addition to the coursework, this course also provided an excellent opportunity to get to know other people in the field and to go on trips near Longyearbyen in our free time. In the long run, this social interaction was more valuable the academic work as I now have met a number of young scientists who are interested in glaciology and with whom I will likely interact in the future. I am not away from Svalbard for long this time as I return for a month long field season with the Norwegian Polar Institute next week.

I will learn from that Their formative act: deposition, for example: fine-grained rock debris, rock flour, and coarse rock fragments picked up or entrained within the base of a glacier and then transported and deposited from either active or stagnant ice. This product of glacial deposition, known as till, consists of particles that follow complicated routes, being deposited on the top or along the sides of the glacier bed, entrained again, and finally dropped. As a sediment, till has certain distinctive features: it exhibits poor sorting, is usually massive, and consists of large stones in a fine matrix of minerals and rock types. Poor sorting: I like that: that it all gets dropped, the big stuff

+ View the NASA Portal Search ASTER Global Land Ice Measurements from Space GLIMS: Basis, goals, foundation, and organizational structure Figure 1 Notwithstanding these improvements, a steadily shrinking pool of personnel dedicated to interpreting and understanding glaciological data, especially data pertaining to glacier change, makes efficiency afforded by technology all the more critical. It also requires organization and coordination, which can enhance efficiency and geographic coverage of glacier changes, provide for checks on accuracy and uniformity of reported data, and reduce excessive redundancy of effort. This is the context in which Global Land Ice Measurements from Space (GLIMS, http://www.glims.org) was developed as a team member project for ASTER (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and reflection Radiometer). GLIMS is seen as a logical extension of the Satellite Image Atlas and the World Glacier Inventory. Figure 1 Analysis results are being contributed by researchers around the world. To organize and archive these results, a global glacier database has been designed at the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC, Boulder, Colorado). Parameters are compatible with and expanded from those of the World Glacier Inventory (WGI). 2. Types of ASTER image applications.
