Scientific study of ice and natural phenomena involving ice
Glaciology (from Latin glacies 'frost, ice' and Ancient Greek λόγος (logos) 'subject matter'; lit. 'study of ice') is the scientific study of glaciers
Glaciology
When a glacier retreats due to extremely low amounts of precipitation
In glaciology, starvation occurs when a glacier retreats, not because of temperature increases, but due to precipitation so low that the ice flow downward
