An ice cap is a dome-shaped water ice mass that covers less than 50,000 km² of land area (usually covering a highland area). Masses of ice covering more than 50,000 km² are termed an ice sheet. ==See also== * polar ice cap * ice shelf * glacier Geology Forms of water
(User:William M. Connolley 10:05, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)) I switched this from a redirect to ice sheet because (at least in the context I'm used to, global warming) an ice cap is different to an ice sheet, in that its much smaller (and therefore responds much more quickly).
