Ancient Glaciers Melting Quickly Peru's Qori Kalis is one of the few remaining tropical glaciers, and it may be gone in five years, reported a glaciologist at Ohio State University. The melting of the Quelccaya Ice Cap poses new hazards to the people living in valleys below the peak. mark for My Articles similar articles

The Vanishing World of Lonnie Thompson A secret history of the world's climate, including global warming, is buried deep inside glaciers atop the world's tallest peaks. But as temperatures rise, those records are melting. One paleontologist/climatologist is racing to preserve a crucial piece of our past- in his freezer. mark for My Articles similar articles

No More "Snows of Kilimanjaro"? Mount Kilimanjaro's glaciers have receded dramatically, making the highest point in Africa a high-profile poster child for global warming. Some scientists contend, however, that Kilimanjaro is a poor example, as its glaciers were disappearing before warming set in. mark for My Articles similar articles
