“The climate is warmer, there is more melting and more water at the base. As a result, the glacier is accelerating and thinning,” he noted. Glacier geologist Lucas Ruiz confirms that Perito Moreno has ...
The breaking off of the glacier, called “calving", has been keeping glaciologists worried as Perito Moreno, for decades, has been maintaining its mass even as warmer climates spurred faster glacial ...
PERITO MORENO GLACIER, Argentina — The deep cracking ... its mass even as warmer climates spurred faster glacial melting worldwide. “Ice calving events of this size haven’t been very common ...
In Perito Moreno’s case, changes in the ice front are mostly caused by underwater melting, which depends on the lake’s water temperature. A warmer lake melts the base of the glacier, creating a “notch ...

"The thing with Perito Moreno is that it took a while, so to speak, to feel the effects of climate change," Ruiz said. Now, however, the accumulation of ice at the top of the glacier was being ...
These changes have disrupted the delicate balance between accumulation and melting at the glacier’s surface. “Compared to other glaciers, Perito Moreno took longer to exhibit signs of climate ...
