1. This indicates a diminishment of the accumulation zone . 2. There is very high gradient from accumulation zone to ablation area and Chandra River. 3. The result is marginal recession of the accumulation zone margin, not just of the terminus. 4. Lateral moraines are present all along the body of the glacier up to the accumulation zone . 5. The upper part of a glacier, where accumulation exceeds ablation, is called the accumulation zone . 6. Ice in the accumulation zone is deep enough to exert a downward force that erodes underlying rock. 7. Alternatively, the body revealed by seismic studies is the remnant mush of the magma accumulation zone . 8. Chikaar base-camp is located at the left side of the accumulation zone of the Darkoot glacier. 9. In effect, the glacier no longer has a consistent accumulation zone and without an accumulation zone cannot survive. 10. In effect, the glacier no longer has a consistent accumulation zone and without an accumulation zone cannot survive.
