Hey Mr. Lampert, Are Glaciers effected by the moon (lunar tides) because they are water based? and What's the surface area of the glacier your under? Savannah and Elijah per 8

lunar tides apparently do not affect the glacier. it does not matter if it is water based, land tides occur too... believe it or not the earth moves up and down with the moon very slightly. I would estimate about 500 hectares. i need to check on that.
