El Calafate, Perito Moreno Glacier – Patagonia Argentina
2009-07-24 17:08:00 The main thing to see in this area is the National Park ‘Los Glaciares’.. Located 80 km west of town, there is a paved road until you get to the park entrance. The glacier is awesome at 30km (20miles) long, 70 meters (230ft) above the waters surface, and it has a total surface of 257km. There are three levels of the viewing platform. You can stay as long as you want and snap as many pictures as you want. If you are lucky you will observe some calf while you are there. You can also go for a walk near the glacier or go for a ride on the tour boat. Undoubtedly, the biggest attraction in this corner of Patagonia, is the Perito Moreno Glacier. This is an awesome giant, one of the great natural wonders of the world. At a time when virtually all the world’s glaciers are retreating the Perito Merino is advancing, albeit very slowly. As the ice pushes forward large chunks break off the terminus, maintaining almost a state of equilibrium. It’s the forward pressure of t...

Global Glacier Melt Means Climate Calamity
2008-03-21 16:23:00 When you receive the Seal you will see climate change as the coming End-times. You will be interested to learn how glaciers all around the world are quickly melting, threatening calamity for billions of people.One of the biggest problems with the melting of the glaciers is the long-term problem of water supply. Many people in the world get their fresh water from glaciers which store up water from snow like a bank and dispense it when it melts.But the glaciers are melting too fast now, and many of them will be completely gone within decades. Few glaciers will remain at the end of the 21st century. And in some places in the world, hundreds of millions of people depend on them.360 million people in India and 388 million in China depend on rivers fed by glaciers. Not only will they not be able to produce enough food to survive, but that will push up food prices worldwide to incredibly high levels.Models predict more droughts because of less rainfall and that will effect production of cr...

Alaska Glacier Speed-up Tied To Internal Plumbing Issues, Says Study
2008-01-22 05:55:00 A University of Colorado at Boulder study indicates meltwater periodically overwhelms the interior drainpipes of Alaska's Kennicott Glacier and causes it to lurch forward, similar to processes that may help explain the acceleration of glaciers observed recently on the Greenland ice sheet that are contributing to global sea rise।According to CU-Boulder Professor Robert Anderson of the Institute of Arctic and Alpine Research, the amount of water passing through conduits inside and underneath the Kennicott Glacier increases during seasonal melting and also following annual flooding from a nearby lake. The addition of excess water from melting and flooding causes water to back up into a honeycomb of passages inside the glacier, he said, suggesting the resulting increase in water pressure causes the glacier to slide more rapidly down its bedrock valley."The phenomenon is similar to the plumbing system of a house that is incapable of handling excess water or waste, causing it to back u...

Hurtigruten Cancels Fram Cruise After Bumping Glacier
2008-01-03 16:02:00 Hurtigruten Cruises has announced that the MS Fram is cruising to Ushuaia, Argentina, due to an engine problem causing the ship to drift into a glacier front at Brown Bluff on December 28th, and suffer damage to one of the lifeboats (see photo to left). According to reports from the ship, no passengers incurred any injuries and the ship suffered no other damage. The ship was able to restart its engines quickly and made its way to Chilean base Frei at King Georges Island for inspection. After receiving the inspection report, Hurtigruten officials decided to send the ship back to Ushuaia. It will arrive there today.

Glacier Lakes
2007-11-07 16:52:00 I had been climbing for hours and there was still a lot of mountain in front of me. I had been promised a great view from the summit, but I seriously doubted I would get there. I raised my hand to shade my eyes, tipped my head back, and looked up. Way up.I ran through the entire motion, backwards, and looked down at where I'd been. I looked at my watch and did a little mental math. I couldn't fool myself into believing that I could significantly pick up my pace; the climbing was getting harder, not easier. And even if I pretended that I could come down the mountain at four times the speed I'd gone up, I was not going to make it. Not before midnight; and, even though the trail was excellent, and well-marked for beginners like me, I was not keen to be going down the mountain in any sort of dark, let alone pitch dark.I looked around; it was too early to give up and head back now; but going forward just to fill the time seemed pointless. Aha. A trail marked in blue branched o...
Maggie the Elephant skates down from the Glacier
2007-10-31 11:45:00 Can't say that I blame her for seeking out warmer climes. In Anchorage, Maggie, who has been alone for 10 years since the death of the zoo's other elephant, Annabelle, lived in a house with concrete floors and a small outside enclosure.Debate over her conditions has rumbled on for years, but the decision to move her came recently after the fire department was called out twice in a week to hoist her to her feet because she could not stand unaided.An earlier attempt by the zoo board to offset criticism of Maggie's condition failed. They bought her a treadmill but she refused to climb on to it.Having been to Alaska twice, I can certify that the top temperature there is in the range of zero degrees. Imagine getting a tread mill for an elephant? Having lived in Sacramento, I think that the climate is a bit more elephant friendly and may allow some of her joints to unfreeze. Talk about pulling out the short straw when the elephants were choosing zoos back in Africa. From the Africa to ...
