"Studying glaciers in the field and on film, Harrison points out, is mre than a fascinating hobby. It also offers us an opportunity to acquire valuable information that can lead to a better understanding of the forces of nature which affect the world around us. The mechanism of ice motion, the response of glaciers and other ice bodies to a change in climate, and the nature of a climatic change which can produce an observable change in a glacier-- these all offer challenging fields of study."
