Iceland's glaciers advance between one and three meters per day. Sometimes, however, so-called 'surges' occur, rapid glacier advances, in which the ice front can advance by 5 m per hour.
Islands Gletscher wandern zwischen einem und drei Metern pro Tag. Manchmal kommt es jedoch zu sogenannten „surges“, schnellen Gletschervorstössen, bei denen die Eisfront um 5 m pro Stunde voranschreiten kann.
