Glacial motion
Glacial motion is the motion of glaciers, which can be likened to rivers of ice.

Glacier
A glacier is a persistent body of dense ice that is constantly moving under its own weight; it forms where the accumulation of snow exceeds its ablation (melting and sublimation) over many years, often centuries.
