Ice Body
An "Ice Body" refers to any large mass of ice, typically found in nature. This can include glaciers, icebergs, and polar ice caps. These formations are crucial for Earth's climate, as they reflect sunlight and help regulate temperatures. Ice bodies also serve as habitats for various wildlife, including seals and polar bears.
Ice bodies are formed through the accumulation and compaction of snow over time. As layers of snow build up, they compress into dense ice. The melting and freezing cycles, influenced by climate change, can affect the size and stability of these ice formations, impacting global sea levels and ecosystems.
