The variations of the metabolism of the glaciers and the polar ice sheets reflect the climate fluctuations. On the yearly time scale, these fluctuations result in variations of the mass balance of the glacier. The bibliographical search of mass balance series produced some 60 long series of measurements on glaciers, distributed on the different mountainous ranges of the north hemisphere and some 60 sites on the Greenland ice sheet. From this data set, a statistical analysis made it possible to determine the spatial and temporal distribution of the series, as well as to better understand the relation glacier-climate for various scales ranging from that of a glacier , to that of a massif or a continent. On the glacier, the history of balances...
