Tasman Glacier, New Zealand.
The Tasman Glacier is retreating faster than ever and will ultimately disappear, glaciologists are warning.
In 1973 there was no lake in front of the Tasman Glacier. But new measurements had taken in 2008 indicating the lake, formed by ice melt from the glacier, is now 7km long, 2km wide and 245m deep. The lake has been formed as the ice which makes up the glacier melts.
