WELCOME TO THE HOME OF DEEP GLACIOLOGY

Glaciology is the study of ice in all of its manifestations and the study of all natural phenomena where ice is involved, including processes at or near the base of glaciers and ice sheets on Earth and other planets.

Barclay Kamb and Hermann Engelhardt are the principal investigators of the Caltech Glaciology Group supported primarily by the National Science Foundation. We also cooperate with scientists at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and NASA. Our work connects us with the glaciology community world-wide.

ICE in all of its forms is our field of study and of great interest to us.
