Russell Glacier (Greenland)
Russell Glacier ( da, Russells Gletscher) is a glacier in the Qeqqata municipality in central-western Greenland. It flows from the Greenland ice sheet ( kl, Sermersuaq) in the western direction. The front of the glacier is located east of Kangerlussuaq. It is active, advancing every year, and, due to easy access from Kangerlussuaq, it remains a popular place for tourists to visit. Geography The ice sheet outflow ending in Russell Glacier is bounded on the north by the tundra highland of Isunngua and on the south by an exposed, barren, flattened ridge of Akuliarusiarsuk. Several meltwater outflow streams from the base of the glacier form the Akuliarusiarsuup Kuua river, which flows west-southwest towards Kangerlussuaq. The sandur basin of the outflow river forming the valley of the same name ( da, Sandflugtdalen) is very shallow; shallow enough to form quicksand fields several kilometers long. Directly to the west of the glacier is a large lake, the 2x10km Aajuitsup Tasia. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
