International Glaciological Society

The International Glaciological Society (IGS) is a professional organization dedicated to the study of glaciers, ice sheets, and snow. It brings together scientists, researchers, and anyone interested in glaciology to share knowledge and advance understanding of ice and its environmental impacts. The IGS publishes scientific journals, organizes conferences, and promotes education on glacial issues. By fostering collaboration, the Society aims to improve research on climate change and its effects on polar regions and mountainous areas, ultimately contributing to global climate science and environmental policy.
