| Scientists study glaciers to learn how the affect the climate
of the earth, how much water is held in glaciers, and how glaciers
affect the land. Space scientists measure the size of glaciers
from outer space. Other scientists go to the glaciers in the
Arctic, Antarctic, and to glaciers in the mountain to study
them. They check for the depth of the ice and how it affects
the land. |
