glaciers

In addition to the melting of glaciers and ice caps, many regions are getting drier and depleting their groundwater.

Its melting glaciers have also created new lakes at risk of glacial outbursts.

Global warming is causing these glaciers to quickly thin and retreat, in turn making debris such as rocks, soil and other materials more vulnerable to being dislodged.

Mountain glaciers are shrinking around the world as temperatures rise.

Climate change is causing dramatic changes to many Antarctic glaciers, including Ecology Glacier, which is undergoing intense melting.
