Изотопный Состав Снежников И Ледников Полярного Урала

Modern glaciers of the Polar Urals are small and usually located 1000 m below the climatic snow line, rarely descending below 400 500 m above sea level. Glaciers are formed by blowing the snow from surrounding slopes and their internal accumulated cold, which contributes to the formation of superimposed ice. The isotope composition of snowfields and glaciers of the Polar Urals was studied (a small glacier on the Paipudynsky ridge and the Romantics glacier); changes in the initial isotopic characteristics during ice formation are discussed.
