Glaciers Seen Through a Scientist's Eyes

Ice Rivers takes readers to glaciers around the world, from Greenland and Antarctica to the Peruvian Andes and the Himalaya, revealing them as living systems rather than simply frozen landscapes.

Author Jemma Wadham, a glaciology professor who has led more than twenty five expeditions to the world's ice, blends personal field stories with clear explanations of the science, showing how these remote environments connect to fisheries, farmland and global climate systems.

Recommended for readers interested in climate science, polar exploration or nature writing grounded in firsthand research.
