More of the worldâs lakes were formed by glaciers than by any other method. During the Ice Age, much of the Northern Hemisphere was covered with great glaciers that cut or enlarged depressions in the earth which later filled with water. These are called glacial lakes.
Icebergs are edges of glaciers that have broken off and slipped into the ocean. Glaciers form on land by snow building up over thousands of years. Each layer of snow compresses those below until, 60 to 70 metres down, glacial ice forms. Glaciers then flow or creep towards the ocean under their own weight, and eventually slip in.
