Did you know that more than two-thirds of the planet's freshwater is stored in glaciers and ice caps? In this installment of her Nature's Decoders series, Expedition Leader Nikki Sentinella explores the many ways ice affects life on Earth, from shaping the terrain to storing water and sequestering carbon. Learn the differences between sea ice and glacial ice, find out what gives glacial lakes their brilliant blue hue, and discover the effect sea ice formation has on the Arctic food web, including polar bears.
