CONT

La glace qui résulte de l'agrégation pure et simple des grains par la congélation n'est pas encore la véritable glace du glacier; c'est une forme intermédiaire entre le névé et la glace que je désigne sous le nom de glace de névé; elle tient à la fois de l'une et de l'autre, en d'autres termes, c'est du névé cimenté par de l'eau gelée.
