Is it true that glacier ice is always less dense than liquid water?
Unclear. Two reference sources state that ice is less dense than liquid water, explaining the crystal structure and giving a density figure. Neither addresses glacier ice specifically, so the evidence covers only the general ice-versus-water comparison.
