How is the glacier formed?

The glaciers are a form of water that is the result of a series of changes in snow. In order to form glaciers, a certain amount of solid precipitation is required, including snow, fog, and hail. Without sufficient solid precipitation as a "raw material," it would mean "the absence of rice," and it would not be a glacier.


Glaciers exist in extremely cold places. The Antarctic and Arctic on the Earth are cold all year round. In other regions, only high altitude mountains can form glaciers. We know that the lower the temperature is, the higher the altitude is, the higher the altitude will be, the lower the temperature will be below 0°C. This altitude is what glaciologists call a snow line.


In Greenland in the Antarctic and Arctic Circles, glaciers are developed on a continent, so they are called continental glaciers. In other areas, glaciers can only develop in the mountains, so the glaciers are called mountain glaciers.


In the high mountains, the glaciers can develop. In addition to requiring a certain altitude, it is also required that the mountains should not be too steep. If the mountain peak is too steep, the falling snow will slide downhill and it will not form snow. It will not form glaciers.


As soon as the snow falls on the ground, it will change. With the change of external conditions and time, the snow will turn into a spherical snow that completely loses its crystal characteristics, called snow, which is the “raw material” of the glaciers.


After the snow turns into snow, the hardness of the snow and the tightness between them increase with time, and the snow particles, large and small, are pressed against each other, tightly embedded together, and the pores are continuously narrowed. As a result, the brightness and transparency of the snow layer gradually weakened, and some air was trapped inside. Glacial ice thus formed. Glacial ice was originally milky white, and after a long period of time, the glacial ice became denser and harder, and the bubbles inside it gradually decreased, gradually turning into crystal clear blue ice crystal old glacial ice.


Glacier ice flows slowly down a hillside under gravity (of course, the flow is very slow), forming a glaciers.

Height Adjustable Gaming Desk

1. Electric lifting coffee table: This coffee table needs manual operation to lift. Lifting is usually done by rotating or stretching a component. The tables are cheap and simple, but they require human operation.

2. Electric lifting coffee table: This coffee table comes with a double motor and two sections of lifting. The coffee table is usually raised and lowered by a button. This kind of end table is more convenient than manual lifting end table, but also more affordable.

3. Smart Lift Coffee Table: This coffee table integrates intelligent technology, which can heat the coffee machine, hot pot and so on through the induction cooker. It can do more, but it's more powerful.
