The power of glaciers is explored. Go inside a glacier to see its spectacular beauty and raw power. Video takes place in Norway. Scientists are starting to understand the power of ice. Scientist use hot water, spraying for two days, to get inside... and see the inside. They go inside and see the ice, there is about 200 meters of ice around them, and if they would stay there for approximately 48 hours the ice would close in on them. The glacier is not really a solid mass of ice, it has water pockets. In three days the ice cave disappears. Video is very interesting and is very good quality. Good for elementary grade and middle school students. (03:34)

No part of Ireland completely escaped the impact of the glaciers of the Ice Age. The glaciers transformed the contours of the island and left behind a landscape of craggy mountains, steep gorges, and vast networks of inland waterways. In this video s...egment from Nature, viewers learn about this part of Ireland's geological past. (01:13)

Video is time lapsed photography from under Mont Blanc glacier. Video is good quality but is too short to really understand the full effect of movement. Good for elementary grade students.

This is a short definition of glaciers and a description of how glaciers develop and their primary attributes. (For instance, if it doesn't move across land it is not a glacier.) (01:22)

With more than 29 million cubic kilometers (7 million cubic miles) of ice and snow, the Antarctic Ice Sheet is so massive that its weight depresses the underlying crust by 900 meters (nearly 3,000 feet). New snow that collects on the ice sheet's surf...ace causes the ice beneath it to spread out and move along the slope of the land. In this video segment adapted from NOVA, a team of glaciologists carves into one glacier on the East Sheet to monitor the nature and speed of its movement. Closed captioning included. Run time 03:33.

From Dragonfly Tv. Deborah and Brittani live in Juneau, Alaska, which is home to 38 glaciers flowing from the gigantic Juneau Ice Field. The girls love being outside, especially in the short Alaskan summers, so they decided to check out a glacier up ...close at the Mendenhall Glacier Visitor Center. The center has cool exhibits that explain the science behind glaciers-like the fact that a glacier is a river of ice that moves because of its own weight and that the Mendenhall Glacier receives about 100 feet of new snow each winter. The girls also saw some evidence, such as old photos, that the glacier has retreated in the last 30 years. They decide to do some investigating to see if they can find out how fast the glaciers are melting.

The weight and movement of glaciers of the Ice Age has shaped about one-third of the Earth's landmass. Glacial movement formed rolling hills, carved out valleys and created a rich variety of landforms. The Burren in Ireland is one of the finest examp...les of landscape shaped by glaciation. Learn more about the Burren in this brief video segment from Nature. Run time 0:40.
