Melt water flowing through these openings can create "ice caves" and networks of "pipes" that can carry water through the ice and spreading warmth, the authors concluded.
作者總結(jié)說，流經(jīng)這些裂口的融水就會沖刷出“冰穴”和“管道”網(wǎng)絡，使水在冰中流動傳播熱量。

Warmer temperatures cause water to expand,a phenomenon called thermal expansion, and cause glaciers and polar ice caps to melt.

And the melt water forms an essential part of many of the world's major rivers.
