Otzi the Iceman (also spelled Oetzi and known also as Frozen Fritz) is the modern nickname of a well-preserved natural mummy of a man from about 3300 BC, found in 1991 in a glacier of the Otztal Alps, near the border between Austria and Italy. The nickname comes from the valley of discovery. He rivals the Egyptian "Ginger" as the oldest known human mummy, and has offered an unprecedented view on the habits of Chalcolithic (Copper Age) Europeans.

How about any of these:\nSubway\nEllis Island - a huge % of us can be traced back to there\nErie Canal\nFinger Lakes - how glaciers caused them\n\nGood Luck

Here's what I found... \n\n\n\nPhysical Features:\n\nThe main mountain system of the Scandinavian peninsula hardly deserves its name of Kjdlen' (the keel). It may rather be described as a plateau deprived of the appearance of a plateau, being on the one hand grooved by deep valleys, while on the other many salient peaks tower above its average level. Such peaks, during the later Glacial period, stood above the ice-field. Peaks and ridges were formed by the action of small glaciers cutting out each its circular hollow (botn) just as they still work on the remaining snow-fields. But where the power of the main ice-mass was at work, the characteristic rounded forms of base rock are seen, close above the sea along the coast, but even as high as 5000 ft. in some inland localities. The high plateau lies along the W. side of the peninsula, so that except in the S.E. Norway is mountainous throughout. Even the part excepted is hilly, but it partakes of the character of the long eastern or Swedish slope of the peninsula. Beyond the coast line their floors sink far below sea-level, and thus are formed the fjords and the belt of rugged islands which characterize almost the entire seaboard of Norway. Where Norway marches with Russia, a few heights exceed 3000,or even 4000 ft., but the land is not generally of great elevation. But from the point of junction with Swedish territory the mountains increase considerably in height. For a short distance, as far south as Lake Tome, the loftiest points lie within Norwegian territory, such as Jaggevarre (6283 ft.), between Lyngen and Ulfs fjords, and Kiste Fjeld (5653 ft.) farther inland. Thereafter the principal heights lie approximately along the crest-line of the plateau and within Swedish territory. Sulitelma, however (6158 ft.), lies on the frontier. Southward again the higher summits fall to Norway. S. of Boa, Svartisen (" the black ice "), a magnificent snow-field bordering the coast, and feeding many glaciers, culminates at 5246 ft. Thereafter, Okstinderne or Oxtinderne (6273 ft.), and the Store Borge Fjeld (5587 ft.) are the principal elevations as far as 64° N. A little S. of this latitude the so-called Trondhjem depression is well marked right across the central upland, the height of the mountains not often exceeding 4000 ft., while the peaked form characteristic of the heights which rose clear of the glaciers of the later Glacial period is wanting. It is from this point too that Norwegian territory broadens 1 In Norwegian the definite article (when there is no epithet) is added as a suffix to the substantive (masc. and fern. en, neuter et). Geographical terms are similarly suffixed to names, thus Suldalsvandet, the lake Suldal. The commonest geographical terms are: elm, river; vand, lake; fjeld, mountain or highland; o, island; dal, valley; noes, cape; fos, waterfall; brce, glacier; vik, vig, bay; eide, isthmus; fjord. Aa is pronounced aw. \n\nso as to include not only the highest land in the peninsula, but a considerable part of the general E. and S.E. slope. The high plateau broadens and follows the S.W. sweep of the coast. Pursuing it S. the Dovre Fjeld is marked off by the valleys of the rivers Driva and Sundal, Laagen (or Laugen) and Rauma, and the fjords of the coastland of Nordmdre. Here Sneha tta reaches a height of 7615 ft., and the Romsdal (the name under which the Rauma valley is famous among tourists) is flanked by many abrupt jagged peaks up to 6000 ft. high. The valley of the Laagen forms the upper part of Gudbrandsdal. East of this and S.E. of the Dovre is another fjeld, Rondane, in which Hdgronden rises to 6929 ft. South of the Otta valley is Jotunheim or Jdtun Fjeld, a sparsely peopled, in parts almost inaccessible, district, containing the highest mountains in Scandinavia, Galdhiipiggen reaching 8399 ft. On the seaward side of Jotunheim is Jostedalsbra, a great snow-field in which Lodalskaupen reaches a height of 6795 ft. South of Sogne Fjord (61° N.)

There is not really something like a critical point for glaciers. As long as temperatures are rising and are resulting in a negative mass balance the glaciers will keep on melting. But that's not irreversible - thinking rather in "geological" time scales, decades or hundreds or thousands of years. As soon as the mass balance gets positive (due to temperature and/OR more precipitation) glaciers will grow again.\n\nThinking e.g. of a huge volcanic eruption or a comet / asteroid hitting the earth and blowing dust into the atmosphere blocking sun light, that might lead to a global "freezing", maybe even to a next ice age.

I have no idea LOOK IT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

from your description, i'm guessing: Wallaby?\n\nactually, i'm looking it up right now:\n\nhttp://pbskids.org/zoboo/\n\nwell, i looked at the whole site and i have no idea what you are talking about. all i see is a Lemur, Elephant, Octopus, Penguin, Panda, Tiger, Bear, and a Lizard named Slimantha.\n\nwell, she must be talking about the snow lemur. check out this link:\nhttp://pbskids.org/zoboo/zobooland/snowlemur.html\nand here's the site map.\nhttp://pbskids.org/zoboo/sitemap.html

Are you sure about the spelling? I couldn't find any Baterman Island on the web, and I guess I'm not the only one. Maybe that's why you don't get any answers, maybe it's Bannerman Island...

You might be more successful with your search if you get the scientific names right. ;-)\nThe species is Testudo graeca, and the subspecies are \nT. graeca graeca\nT. graeca ibera\nT. graeca terrestris\nand there are several subspecies, although their validity and status are questioned.\n\nHere's some good information:\nhttp://www.chelonia.org/Articles/Whatisagolden.htm

I saw the documentry on PBS.It was in Alaska.I don't recall the mans name.But you could find it on PBS site I bet.

Sorry! I have tried so hard to find it for you but google is just not finding it! Hope you find it soon!

that remains to be seen but glaziers have always been moving .so a deep groove is more likely \n\nit is the ice in the south Pole which should hold the most interesting secrets ,as it is a big land mass that used to be in the tropics \nmany of us believe that Atlantis could be beneath Antarctica

ttocsewol is sort of right but off by a little bit. The ice is anaerobic, meaning it has little or no air in its structure compared to regular ice. But the ice is actually only scattering blue light and absorbing the larger wavelengths (green through to red). The higher frequency blue wavelengths become more scattered the farther into the ice they travel, so the ice has to be thick to appear blue. If you chipped a piece off, it would be almost perfectly clear. Much clearer than normal ice, and this is becase as the ice crystals are compressed, they actually grow in size, which causes visible light to have a greater chance of passing straight through without being scattered.\n\nBoulder dust within the ice can also contribute to its colour.\n\nI live only a few hours drive from the Columbia Icefield, and I spent a day last summer walking up the Saskatchewan Glacier, which was awesome. Glaciers are one of my favourite things to visit. In fact, I spent all of last summer in the Rocky Mountains, and saw at least 50 or more large glaciers. Even flew over a bunch in a helicopter.\n\nI put a picture of me on the Saskatchewan glacier here:\n\nwww.8008rocks.com/DSCN2519.jpg
