Abstract. Numerous drafts of a Glacier Protection Law (GPL) have been proposed in Chile since 2006, but the law has not been approved due to a lack of consensus partially due to inadequate definitions of landform types. Neither the approved Argentinian GPL or Chilean draft explicitly identify or define different glacier types nor are their distinct hydrological roles considered. We propose three glacier categories that group landforms based on their sensitivity to environmental changes, which is strongly associated with their hydrological role, and review both national inventories to facilitate the evaluation and/or management of water resources.
