Nature
Umiamako Glacier, also known by the Danish name Umiammakku Isbræ, is a glacier in Avannaata in northwestern Greenland. A marine-terminating outlet of the Greenland Ice Sheet, it carries ice from the inland ice sheet to the sea. The glacier ends at Nordost Bay in Karrat Fjord, which opens toward Baffin Bay in the North Atlantic. It flows generally southwest before bending to a nearly north-south course near its terminus, and it lies among some of the highest mountains in western Greenland.
