Matusevich Glacier in Antarctica
NASA satellites have taken numerous pictures of Matusevich Glacier on the coast of East Antarctica. The space agency uses the photos to help create a unified view of the ice-sheet volume and overall glacial health of Antarctica. Matusevich doesn’t push a significant amount of glacial ice into the ocean as it grows and recedes seasonally. But tracking it means scientists can compare the glacier’s movement to the more active movements of other glaciers on Antarctica.
