Grinnell Glacier,Montana,USA in 2010. Image 2 of 2. Glaciers are large,slow-moving expanses of ice,formed from compacted layers of snow. They are sensitive to climate change and in recent years most have retreated dramatically. This view,taken in 2010,shows how much the glacier has receded and thinned compared to a photograph taken from a similar position in 1936 (C014/5137). The glacier terminus (centre right) is visible behind a lake. This feature is not visible in the 1936 image | |
