What is it called when a glacier moves?

Answers

Answered by santoshgupta9495

A glacier might look like a solid block of ice, but it is actually moving very slowly. The glacier moves because pressure from the weight of the overlying ice causes it to deform and flow.

Answered by smileall

This is called surging. A surging glacier can advance tens or even hundreds of metres a day.
