we put mics down almost inside glaciers from a smallish boat and listened. This and the sounds following are field recordings from Glacier Bay, Alaska

When you hear the loud crashing, that's when the glacier is dropping tons of ice off itself and into the bay It's called calving

what's that sound for the last 37 seconds of the file? Also, I'd like to use this sound in an ambient production of a collaboration I'm doing with another artist if that's alright. I will obviously give credit in the liner notes of the album. The album has a working title of Neptune Glacier and it's a 5 hour track, though there will be a 30 minute version available as well. Thanks for the great file. Oh, one other question, if I use the sound, am I free to be creative and process it how I'd like as long as the above credit is still given?
