The melting of huge icecaps and the creation of glacial lakes around the world are imposing major threats to the environment, to an extent where the possibility of flooding in low lying areas is very much likely to follow.  According to a new study based on satellite data, the number of lakes originated due to the worldwide glacier melt has increased by more than half its limit in 30 years.   Dan Sugar who is a geomorphologist and associate professor at the University of Calgary addressed the issue of rising water levels caused due to glacial lakes. He stated that they had identified that not all the meltwater is making it into the oceans immediately but until now there was "no data to gauge how much of it was being deposited in lakes or groundwater.”  It is also very hard to establish where all that water is going.  These lakes are formi
