Mouginot, J. Glacier ice is blue because the red long wavelengths part of white light is absorbed by ice and the blue short wavelengths light is transmitted and scattered. The longer the path light travels in ice, the more blue it appears. Glaciers exist on every continent except Australia. What is a glacier? A glacier is a large, perennial accumulation of crystalline ice, snow, rock, sediment, and often liquid water that originates on land and moves down slope under the influence of its own weight and gravity.
Typically, glaciers exist and may even form in areas where: mean annual temperatures are close to the freezing point winter precipitation Filter Total Items: 9. Year Published: U. View Citation.

July 19, Researchers start drilling an ice core in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. That is a great question. In fact, there are several ways in which we know when ice first began to accumulate on the Antarctic continent. Firstly, offshore seismic surveys and drilling campaigns of sediments on the continental slope and shelf. These sediments are dated using biostratigraphical methods such as dinoflagellate cysts , strontium isotopes analysis on pristine shells, and by isotopic analysis of volcanic rocks see Davies et al.
