ogive Banded pattern on the surface of a glacier. Normally it is convex down-glacier due to relatively high velocities at the centre. The banding effect may be due to alternating bands of white ice (containing many air bubbles) and dark ice (few air bubbles), or to variations in longitudinal pressure.
