Glaciologists are people who study and analyze the movement and physical properties of glaciers and ice. They study such conditions so as to make predictions on weather, ice formations and possible elevation changes of the earth’s surface. Findings from their research are crucial in determining changes in climate and sea levels that consequently affect many factors of life on earth especially today that Global warming has become a very serious issue. Most Glaciologists do their research in field stations on mountains and some are stationed at the arctic regions.
