Relating to rocks, organisms, or materials that float or are suspended in glacial ice or meltwater.
From glacial plus Latin natans (swimming, floating). This rare geological term combines ice terminology with the concept of suspension or floating.
Glacionatant organisms in glacial streams include special ice algae that thrive in near-freezing water—they're adapted to one of Earth's harshest environments!
