All Glaciers of Scandinavia and Iceland

This child group collects Glaciers of Europe members located in Scandinavia and Iceland, principally the plateau and outlet glaciers of Norway and Sweden such as those of the Jostedalsbreen and Folgefonna ice caps, together with Iceland's own glaciated volcanic terrain. These northern maritime glaciers sit at a markedly different latitude and climatic regime from the Alpine glaciers grouped separately, fed by heavy coastal precipitation rather than high continental elevation, and are treated as one child group covering the Nordic region rather than split further by country.
