Примери за ice cap

• Distinct layers of firn were observed to the south, where the ice cap ends in a small cliff of 19 m in height.

• Most of the island is covered by an ice cap that rises to 35 m above sea level, as determined by airborne laser scanning.

• All of them are located along the crest of the ice cap.

• They noted a strongly bisected coastline, with inlets reaching towards the ice cap, and numerous meltwater lakes, often without apparent external discharge.

• There is widespread evidence from terrestrial samples of ice and snow, including ice cap cores that contain organic compounds.

• Their results confirmed from space the 2001 airborne measurements of an ice cap up to 35 m high, and an island of 2 km extent.

• During this visit it became clear that there was only one island, not a group of islets, and that the ice cap was higher than previously estimated.

• In addition to the official flag hoisting and the geodetic measurements, three samples of gravel and one sample with moss were collected north of the ice cap.

• It was traditionally just the north polar ice cap that was melting, but there is now melting at both poles.

• Instead of a polar ice cap we have large icebergs detaching themselves and starting off on courses which cannot be foreseen or known in advance.

• It is covered with a very deep and thick ice cap.

• There would also be a progressive growth in the weight of the ice cap of "between 100 and 400 billion tons per year".

• There is evidence of melting of the polar ice cap at both poles.

• They can go round the world under the ice cap or in any other way they like.

• The marked route ends at the bushline and the remainder of the climb is on tussock, rock, and eventually the summit ice cap glacier.
