Glaciers are massive, slow-moving bodies of ice that form over centuries from compacted snowfall. Glaciers are highly sensitive to temperature changes, and many are shrinking rapidly due to climate change. This melting contributes to rising sea levels and disrupts ecosystems and water sources for millions of people. Scientific research on glaciers focuses on understanding their dynamics, monitoring their changes, and predicting the impacts of glacier loss on both local and global scales. Protecting glaciers is critical for maintaining climate stability and water security.
