Swollen with meltwater from the mountains, a stream rushed between reedy banks. |
Following melt initiation, the intensity of melt is another consideration in the production of meltwater runoff. |
Except when engorged by spring meltwater and ice, the Severn River empties serenely into Hudson Bay. |
While these lakes existed, they were maintained by the inflow of dirty meltwater from the receding glacier. |
And because many glaciers store large amounts of meltwater and release it suddenly, lives downstream will be lost. |
Formed by accumulated meltwater, the overfilled lakes could suddenly discharge massive volumes of water, known as glacial lake outburst flooding. |
