GENEVA, Oct. 1 (Xinhua) -- Switzerland's glaciers have lost a quarter of their volume in the last ten years, with over 1,000 small glaciers having already disappeared, GLAMOS, the glacier monitoring network in Switzerland, and the Swiss Commission for Cryosphere observation (SCC) of the Swiss Academy of Sciences jointly said Wednesday.
Meanwhile, almost three percent of the glacier volume was lost across the country in 2025, marking the fourth largest level of shrinkage since measurements began, just after the years of 2022, 2023 and 2003, GLAMOS and SCC said in a statement.
