Cryosphaera
Cryosphaera (Graece κρύος 'frigor, pruina, gelu' + σφαῖρα 'globus') est illae superficiei telluris regiones ubi aqua forma solida fit, inter quas glacies marinae, glacies lacustrinae, glacies fluviales, nix, glaciaria, glaciaria continentalis, capita glaciei, et humus conglaciatus (glacie perpetua non exclusa). Ergo, cryosphaera multum cum hydrosphaera congruit. Cryosphaera est necessaria systematis climatis globalis pars, cui sunt coniunctiones et retroactio per eius momentum in energia superficiali et fluxibus umidis, nubibus, praecipitatione, hydrologia, et circulatione atmosphaerica oceanicaque effecta. Per quas rationes retroactionis, partes magni momenti agit in climate globali et in responsis exemplaris climatici mutationibus globalibus effectis. Regressus proprietatum cryosphaericarum est deglaciatio; studium cryosphaerarum est cryologia.

Structura 
Aqua conglaciata, praecipue stratum nivis, glacies aquae dulcis in lacubus et fluminibus, glacies marina, glaciaria, laminae glaciei, et humus conglaciatus glaciesque perpetua (solum semper conglaciatum), super superficie telluris late invenitur.

Plurimum glaciei terrestris per volumen in Antarctica patet, plerumque in Lamina Glaciei Antarcticae Orientalis.
