Introduction '''Kangerlussuaq Glacier''' (, meaning 'large fjord'; old spelling ''Kangerdlugssuaq'') is the largest glacier on the east coast of the Greenland ice sheet. It flows into the head of the Kangerlussuaq Fjord, the second largest fjord in East Greenland.In 2016 the glacier had retreated further inland than at any time in the previous 33 years. Continued rapid retreat is likely.
