Abstract | This talk is a basic introduction to glaciers, explaining their roles in the climate system, sea-level fluctuation, the water cycle and landscape evolution in the high mountains. We discuss simple zero and one-dimensional models of glacier dynamics, and describe how these models could be used to solve some of these puzzles. |
