What moves faster streams of glacial ice or river water?

Streams of glacial ice move faster than river water. Glaciers are large masses of ice that move slowly over land. The speed of a glacier depends on several factors, including the slope of the land, the thickness of the glacier, and the temperature of the ice. Glaciers can move as fast as several meters per day. River water, on the other hand, moves much slower. The speed of a river depends on the slope of the riverbed, the amount of water in the river, and the resistance from the riverbed and banks. Rivers typically move at speeds of a few kilometers per hour.
