Were learning more about some ancient features in Yosemite National Park.

Scientists are researching two glaciers in the park. 

They say the Lyell Glacier has stopped moving but the Maclure Glacier is still moving about an inch per day. 

It's part of a worldwide study on glaciers. 

The two glaciers were originally studied by John Muir more than 140 years ago.
