“...The appearance of monstrous ice sheets
meant the destruction of all organic life
on the ground. The territory of Europe, which is before
covered with tropical vegetation and
inhabited by elephants and hippos, suddenly
disappeared under endless masses of ice,
flooded everything - plains, lakes, seas,
hills..."
Ice, huge masses of ice that hid underneath
ourselves, the continents - this is the image of the glacial
period, the image of the nature of his cold world,
created by Jean Louis Agassiz, an outstanding
Swiss scientists XIX V., founder
glacial theory, or the doctrine of the ancients
glaciations.

WHAT IS A GLACIER?

Glacier is...
natural accumulations
snow and ice, having
ability to move
moving ice accumulation
atmospheric origin on
land surface

Glacier formation

Glaciers are formed as a result of the accumulation and
subsequent conversion of atmospheric solids
precipitation (snow) with a positive long-term balance.
The general condition for the formation of glaciers is a combination
low air temperatures with large amounts of solids
precipitation, which occurs in cold countries
high latitudes and the top parts of the mountains. However, the more
the amount of precipitation, the higher the air temperature may be.
Thus, the annual amounts of solid precipitation vary from 30-50 mm per
Central Antarctica up to 4500 mm on the glaciers of Patagonia,
and the average summer temperature is from – 40 C in Central
Antarctica up to 15 C at the ends of the longest glaciers
Central Asia, Scandinavia, New Zealand, Patagonia.

The process of glacier formation is the process of turning snow into ice.

Snowflakes turn into grains under
influence of evaporation, melting and
pressure of overlying layers.
Grainy ice - firn - is formed.
Firn is formed in the mountains above the snow
lines and in the polar regions, where
the fallen snow does not have time to melt over the summer.

Glaciers have different origins:

Integumentary
Mountain
Mountain covers

MOUNTAIN GLACIERS
Formed where mountains reach
climatic snow limit,
located at a certain height in
atmosphere.

Mountain glaciers are divided into:

Mountain
Prone
Dolinnye

Glacier in Glacier National Park VALLEY GLACIER

Cover glaciers are divided into:

Ice domes (large convex
glaciers up to 1000m thick);
Ice sheets (convex glaciers
with a thickness of more than 1000 m and an area
over 50 thousand km.kv)
Outlet glaciers, ice sheets,
ice shelves.

Ice sheet glaciers

Contains most of the reserves fresh
water on Earth. One medium iceberg
sizes consists of the same number
fresh water, which is carried out in a year
small river.

Ice sheet glaciers

COVER GLACIERS are located on
continents or large islands, in those
areas where the climate is snowy
the border is located at ocean level. TO
These include the glaciers of Antarctica,
Greenland, Arctic islands.

Descending to the sea, the glacier forms an ice shelf located on the continental shelf shelf. The part that breaks off is called an iceberg

Iceberg Ice Shelf

Mountain cover glaciers are divided into:

Glaciers of the foothills
Glaciers
Reticulated foothills
glaciation is formed in
in case the climatic snow
the border is very low and
the amount of precipitation is high.
Glaciers formed in the mountains quickly
come out
Reticulate
glaciation
typical for
plain. Distributed
Iceland, Spitsbergen.
Alaska.

Glacier feeding

The main source of food for glaciers is
precipitation. To other sources
nutrition includes continental transport -
snow, transported, avalanche snow,
sublimation on the ice surface.

Glacier movement

Glaciers move along the slope of the terrain,
movement is influenced by force
gravity.
To increase the speed of movement
is influenced by an increase in ice mass and
his temperature.

In addition to such forced oscillations,
directly related to mass balance,
some glaciers are experiencing movement (
pulsations), which arise as
the result of processes within itself
glacier - spasmodic changes
conditions on the bed and redistribution
substances between areas of accumulation and
ablation (melting) without significant
changes in the total mass of ice.

Glacial waters are sources
food for rivers Complete melting of glaciers
would lead to a rise in sea levels by
60 m and flooding of 10% of the land.

Hello guys!!!

Who is absent? Family check using the attendance/absence register.

Guys, today we will study the glacial shell of the Earth i.e. "Glaciers". listen to how Jean Louis Agassiz wrote about glaciers“...The appearance of monstrous ice sheets meant the destruction of all organic life on Earth. The territory of Europe, which was previously covered with tropical vegetation and inhabited by elephants and hippopotamuses, suddenly disappeared under endless masses of ice, flooding everything - plains, lakes, seas, hills ... "

Ice, huge masses of ice that hid continents underneath - this is the image of the Ice Age, the image of the nature of its cold world, created by Jean Louis Agassiz, an outstanding Swiss scientist of the 19th century, the founder of the glacial theory, or the doctrine of ancient glaciations.

His emotional description conjures up many other images: seas clogged with icebergs, encased in unmelting ice; unrecognizable Europe and Siberia, buried under an Antarctic-like ice sheet.

What is true in the picture painted by Agassiz, and what is just his fantasy? What are glaciers, when, how and why do they arise, grow and collapse, move and interact with the atmosphere, seas and oceans, and the earth’s crust?

These and other questions, many of which were posed by Agassiz a century and a half ago, still concern researchers today. Some of them have already been answered, others are still a matter of debate.

- We opened the textbooks on page 98 and read the definition of a glacier.

Now we read how glacial ice differs from ice. Read on.

The teacher talks about the formation of glaciers

Glaciers are formed as a result of the accumulation and subsequent transformation of solid atmospheric precipitation (snow) with their positive long-term balance.
The general condition for the formation of glaciers is a combination of low air temperatures with a large amount of solid precipitation, which occurs in cold countries of high latitudes and the top parts of mountains. However, the higher the precipitation amount, the higher the air temperatures can be. Thus, the annual amounts of solid precipitation vary from 30-50 mm in Central Antarctica to 4500 mm on the glaciers of Patagonia, and the average summer temperature from – 40 C in Central Antarctica to 15 C at the ends of the longest glaciers in Central Asia, Scandinavia, New Zealand, Patagonia .

MOUNTAIN GLACIERS form where mountains reach the climatic snow line, located at some altitude in the atmosphere.

Mountain glaciers are dividedon: Mountain; Inclined;Valley

Descending to the sea, the glacier forms an ice shelf located on the continental shelf shelf. The part that breaks off is called iceberg

Mountain cover glaciers are divided into:Glaciers of the foothills; Reticulate glaciation

Glaciers of the foothillsare formed if the climatic snow line is located very low and the amount of precipitation is high. Glaciers formed in the mountains quickly reach the plain. Distributed in Alaska.

Mesh glaciation is typical for Iceland and Spitsbergen.

Glaciers are of different origins: Glaciers; Mountain; Mountain covers.

Let's complete the task on page 98.

Read.

Open Physical card hemispheres, find the Kilimanjaro volcano on the continent of Africa.

Who found the volcano? What is the height of the volcano?

Let's look at the symbols that indicate a glacier on the map.

Let's look at the conditions of the problem. With altitude, the air temperature decreases by 6C every 1000m

You know that water freezes at 0 degrees.

COVER GLACIERS are located on continents or large islands, in those areas where the climatic snow line is located at ocean level. These include glaciers of Antarctica, Greenland, and Arctic islands.

The teacher talks about mountain glaciers and shows slides with photographs of mountain glaciers.

How do you think the glacier is fed?

Glaciers move along the slope of the terrain, and the movement is influenced by gravity.

The increase in movement speed is influenced by the increase in ice mass and its temperature.

Glacial waters are sources of nutrition for rivers. The complete melting of glaciers would lead to a rise in sea levels by 60 m and the flooding of 10% of the land.

Now let's review the material we covered.

What are the origins of glaciers?

What is an iceberg and how is it formed?

“Glacier as a unique source of fresh water”

INTRODUCTION

Relevance of the chosen topic:

I think this topic very important to me. While studying the section “Hydrosphere” in geography lessons,

I became interested in the topic “Glaciers”. After all, glaciers contain a large supply of fresh water. The glacier is distinguished not only by its large supply of fresh water, but also by its amazing beauty. An example of such an amazing natural phenomenon is the Perito Moreno glacier. I wanted to find out for myself and tell others about this glacier, to show and tell the beauty of this natural phenomenon.

Hypothesis:

I hope others will be interested in the information about glaciers. Someone will want to know even more about them, about their beauty and unusualness.

Objective of the project:

Prove that the glacier is a unique source of fresh water. Show the beauty and uniqueness of an amazing natural phenomenon using the example of the Perito Moreno glacier.

Project objectives:

    Getting to know the glaciers. Characteristics of glaciers. The beauty and uniqueness of the Perito Moreno glacier.

    Summarize and systematize the collected material: study reference and additional literature, using Internet resources on this topic, gaining new knowledge in geography lessons on the topic “Hydrosphere” and using them in preparation for the project, etc.

    Draw appropriate conclusions.

    Poster “Sources of fresh water: glaciers and lakes”

    Presentation “Glacier as a unique source of fresh water”

Fundamental question:

What makes glaciers unique?

Main part

Project: “Glacier as a unique source of fresh water” (slide 1).

Glaciers are fresh water frozen into ice (slide 2).

Based on their appearance and the nature of their movement, glaciers are divided into two main types - continental (cover) and mountain. The former occupy about 98% of the area of ​​modern glaciation, the latter – about 1.5%. (slide 3).

Fresh water supply.

The bulk of the world's fresh water reserves (or more than 25 million km3) are, as it were, conserved in the glaciers of the globe. These are the glaciers of Antarctica and Greenland, sea ​​ice Arctic.

Only in one summer season, when the natural melting of this natural ice, more than 7,000 km3 of fresh water could be obtained, and this amount exceeds all global water consumption.

The glacier is distinguished not only by its large supply of fresh water, but also by its amazing beauty. An example of such an amazing natural phenomenon is the Perito Moreno glacier (slide 4).

Perito Moreno (slide 5).

Perito Moreno is the most beautiful glacier national park Los Glaciares, which is located in the Argentine province of Santa Cruz. Its area is 250 sq. km (slide 6).

Perito Moreno is impressive in size. Ice blocks, 30 thousand years old, rise 70 meters above Lake Argentino. But this is just the tip of the iceberg, because another 500 meters are hidden under water.
The snow giant moves slowly and surely. Every day it moves by an average of 2 meters. The glacier moves, but at the same time loses mass (slide 7).
One of the most breathtaking natural spectacles is the collapse of the edges of the glacier, which slide into the lake and form a dam. As soon as the water level rises and pressure occurs, the snow walls crumble.

The last Perito Moreno collapses occurred in 2012, 2008, 2006, 2004 and 1988 (slide 8).

The spectacular blue tint results from the fact that compressed ice is able to absorb all colors except blue (slide 9).
According to glyciologists, Perito Moreno is clear evidence that despite global warming Glaciations still exist on our planet (slide 10).

Curious facts
Hundreds of thousands of tourists flock to Patagonia every year to see with their own eyes a unique miracle of nature - a giant block of ice of amazing snow-white azure color (slide 11).
Guides accompanying tourists along the trails near the glacier firmly believe that Perito Moreno is alive and has a soul of its own.

Visitors standing nearby hear a constant crackling sound, as if a giant ice machine is tossing and sighing.
Nearby, special convenient paths on poles have been built to cause the least damage to nature and prevent many thousands of pairs of visitors’ shoes from coming into contact with the ground (slide 12).
When huge pieces of ice break off from the body of the glacier and, with an incredible roar, amplified by a powerful echo, fall into the water, spraying fireworks of pearlescent splashes hundreds of meters around - all this happens as if in slow motion (slide 13).

The beauty of the glacier (slide 14, 15,16,17,18).

Thank you for your attention! (slide 19).

CONCLUSION

Research results:

During his research activities II found out that glaciers contain a lot of fresh water. I saw how beautiful the glaciers are - unique sources of fresh water. At the end of the work, a presentation was created that showed the beauty of one of the glaciers - Perito Moreno. Defending my work in class aroused interest among classmates in this topic.

Together with a classmate, I created a poster “Sources of fresh water - lakes and glaciers.”
