Creator "castigate" the snow to create extremely perfect contours, shapes of glaciers like giant elephant footprints.
Located in Northeast Greenland, glaciers look no different elephant foot powder bowls newly poured onto the surface of a pan. Glacier elephant foot is a good example of river type located at the foot of a mountainside. From on high, visitors can easily recognize special shape of this type of glaciers.
In fact, the glacier is one of the natural phenomena on earth quite special. The river is formed by loose snow and ice accumulated precipitation from rain over the centuries, while achieving a certain level will continue to flow under the slope towards the valley or certain waters. It is difficult to see the shift of the glaciers over the past few decades, but visitors can easily recognize the landscape changed dramatically.
Glacier is located on the peninsula elephantiasis Kronprins Christian Land. Although there is no link with the main glaciers of Greenland instead glacier belongs elephantiasis and river network of ice around the perimeter of the island.
Research has shown that these outlying glaciers and ice caps account for only 5-7% although the total volume of ice of Greenland, take up 20% of the sea level rise due to melting ice.
Malaspina glaciers of Southeast Alaska is an example of the type of glaciers at the foot of the slopes.
This 65 km long glacier and 45 km wide, this is also the glacier foot slopes of the world's largest. Glaciers are formed in the ice valley, mainly due to melting glaciers Agassiz Seward and Saint Elias Mountains in the coastal plain opposite the Gulf of Alaska.
