| Description |
English: Antarctica: The blue ice covering Lake Fryxell, in the Transantarctic Mountains, comes from glacial meltwater from the Canada Glacier and other smaller glaciers. The freshwater stays on top of the lake and freezes, sealing in briny water below.
Français : Antarctique: La glace bleue couvrant le Lac Fryxell, dans la Chaîne Transantarctique, vient des eaux de fonte du Glacier Canada et d'autres glaciers plus petits. L'eau douce se trouve en surface du lac et gèle, scellant une eau saumâtre située en-dessous.
Українська: Льодовикове озеро Фрікселл, що наповнюється водами з льодовика Канада. Трансантарктичні гори, Антарктида. |
