Glaciers form on mountains where snow accumulation exceeds melting year after year.

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that glaciers form on mountains where snow accumulation exceeds melting year after year?

Yes. A reference source states directly that a glacier forms where snow accumulation exceeds ablation over many years, and several glaciological sources describe glacier mass balance as the budget between snow accumulation and melting.
