20120113_IMG_7796.jpg Stone stripes on Coniston Old Man in the Lake district, UK. These patterned ground features are caused by freeze thaw cycles which heaves the larger stones into lines down slope. Such patterned ground has become less common as winters have become milder.

IMG_7395_protest.jpg A tourist at Jokulsarlon ice lagoon, one of the most visited places in Iceland. It has been created by the rapid retreat of the Breidamerkurjokull glacier which sweeps down off the Vatnajokull ice cap. Ice bergs calve off the front and float into the lagoon before floating out to sea when small enough. All of Icelands glaciers are retreating rapidly, and are predicted to disapear completely in the next 100 years. James Bond and Batman movies have been filmed at the ice lagoon.

IMG_9742_volcanic ash.jpg The snout of the Solheimajokull glacier on the Myrdalsjokull ice cap in Iceland. It was melting rapidly due to climate change, but is now melting even faster after the eruption of Eyjafjallajokull covered it in black ash, meaning that it absorbs more of the suns solar radiation. Scientists predict that all of Icelands glaciers will have disappeared within 100 years.
