Abstract
Glaciers, especially the small/local ones, are rapidly melting and disappearing due to their heightened sensitivity to climate change. A holistic understanding of the key criteria and fundamental challenges in developing materials for local glacier conservation is urgently needed, coupled with a call for interdisciplinary collaboration to effectively address the pressing issue of local glacier retreat.
