 C. Reading

There are two basic types of glaciers, those that flow outward in all directions with little
regard for any underlying terrain and those that are confined by terrain to a particular path.
The first category of glaciers includes those massive blankets that cover whole continents,
appropriately called ice sheets. There must be over 50,000 square kilometers of land covered
with ice for the glacier to qualify as an ice sheet. When portions of an ice sheet spread out
over the ocean, they form ice shelves.

About 20,000 years ago the Cordilleran Ice Sheet covered nearly all the mountains in
southern Alaska, western Canada, and the western United States. It was about 3 kilometers
deep at its thickest point in northern Alberta. Now there are only two sheets left on Earth,
those covering Greenland and Antarctica.

Any domelike body of ice that also flows out in all directions but covers less than 50,000
square kilometers is called an ice cap. Although ice caps are rare nowadays, there are a
number in northeastern Canada, on Baffin Island, and on the Queen Elizabeth Islands.

The second category of glaciers includes those of a variety of shapes and sizes generally
called mountain or alpine glaciers. Mountain glaciers are typically identified by the landform
that controls their flow. One form of mountain glacier that resembles an ice cap in that it
flows outward in several directions is called an ice field. The difference between an ice field
and an ice cap is subtle. Essentially, the flow of an ice field is somewhat controlled by
surrounding terrain and thus does not have the domelike shape of a cap. There are several ice
fields in the Wrangell. St. Elias, and Chugach mountains of Alaska and northern British
Columbia.

Less spectacular than large ice fields are the most common types of mountain glaciers: the
cirque and valley glaciers. Cirque glaciers are found in depressions in the surface of the land
and have a characteristic circular shape. The ice of valley glaciers, bound by terrain, flows
down valleys, curves around their corners, and falls over cliffs.
