Franz Josef Glacier, Fox Glacier, Tasman Glacier, and Hooker Glacier are four glaciers located in New Zealand.
Fox Glacier is located in Westland Tai Poutini National Park on the West Coast of New Zealand's South Island. It is one of the most accessible glaciers in the world, with the nearest town being Franz Josef.
North Moraine Hill Glacier is located in Antarctica, specifically in the northern part of the Thiel Mountains. It is a small glacier that flows to the east from its center located at Coordinates: Latitude -85.3167 Longitude -103.4833. It is one of the many glaciers in Antarctica that contribute to ice loss due to ongoing climate change.
A growing glacier accumulates more snow and ice each year, leading to overall glacier advancement. In contrast, a melting glacier loses more ice and snow than it gains, resulting in glacier retreat.
A glacier snout is the terminus or end point of a glacier where ice and meltwater are released. It is where the glacier meets lower elevations and warmer temperatures, causing melting and ice loss. The snout can vary in shape and size depending on the glacier's dynamics.
The population of Fox Glacier is 375.

The South Island of New Zealand has several large glaciers. One major ice field is known as the Fox Glacier while another is called the Tasman Glacier.
