GLACIER TEXTURES — Iceland
Icelandic glaciers showcase a distinctive structure characterized by crevasses, which are deep fissures resulting from the glacier's movement. These crevasses, often concealed beneath a layer of snow, contribute to the glacier's textured and rugged appearance.
The ice of these glaciers presents a visually striking combination of colors, with notable shades of blue and black. The blue coloration is a consequence of Rayleigh scattering, a phenomenon where longer wavelengths are absorbed, allowing shorter, blue wavelengths to scatter. This optical effect imparts an ethereal, glacial blue tint to the ice.
