Almost two centuries after British explorer Sir John Franklin and his men died amid paralyzing cold and ice in pursuit of the mythical Northwest Passage, the Arcticin response to temperatures greater than at any time in the last ten thousand yearsis melting at an alarming pace.

Proceedings of various meetings of the Glaciotectonics Work Group: Field meeting at Mon, Denmark 1986; INQUA congress, Ottawa (1987); Field meeting at Norfolk, UK (1988).
Ecuador's glaciers are situated close to the Equator in South America and thus can be considered to be among the best examples of continental tropical glaciation.

Polar Ice and Global Warming in Cryosphere Regions is based on recent and past climate variabilities data gathered through satellites and spatial-temporal analysis to explain the role of global warming on cryosphere regions such as high-latitude Himalaya, Arctic and Antarctic regions, and the surrounding Southern Ocean and Arctic Ocean.
AS SEEN ON DISNEY+A Guardian 'Top 10 Nature Memoirs' pick'Poetic and heartful' GuardianIcelandic author and activist Andri Sn r Magnason's 'Letter to the Future', an extraordinary and moving eulogy for the lost Okjokull glacier, made global news and was shared by millions.
At some time 30% of the world's land mass was covered by glaciers leaving substantial deposits of glacial soils under major conurbations in Europe, North and South America, New Zealand, Europe and Russia.
Considering that glaciers and ice sheets cover about 10% of the Earth's land surface in a world where human civilization is increasingly impacted by the effects of changing glacial activity, Colour Atlas of Glacial Phenomena presents itself as an indispensable guide for students, professionals, and researchers who want to be better informed while studying and tracking the future influences of glaciers and ice sheets on the global environment.
