How A Melting Iceberg Is Reshaping Marine Ecosystems
A massive iceberg, A-68, which broke off from Antarctica's Larsen C Ice Shelf in 2017, has created a distinctive marine environment during its four-year drift, according to recent scientific analyses.

A23a: Iceberg That Broke Free In 1986 Still Spinning Today
The world's largest iceberg, A23a, has been spinning in its place just north of Antarctica for months instead of being swept along by Earth's most powerful ocean current.

NASA Satellite Image Shows World's Largest Iceberg Heading To Its Doom
It was slowly drifting along the Antarctica for more than a year, but its melting has accelerated now and the iceberg is heading for its eventual demise, the outlet further said.

NASA’s Satellite Imagery Shows Antarctic Ice Shelf Crumbling Faster Than Imagined
NASA’s recent study led by researchers from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) has revealed that Antarctica's coastal glaciers are shedding icebergs more rapidly than nature can replenish the crumbling ice. This raises new concern about how fast climate change is weakening Antarctica's floating ice shelves and accelerating the rise of global sea...

Massive Iceberg Breaks Off Ice Shelf In Antarctica
A more than 600-square-mile iceberg broke off Antarctica in recent days, but the event is part of a normal cycle and is not related to climate change, scientists say.

Iceberg Twice The Size Of New York City Is About To Break Off Antarctica
Since 1956, British scientists have been studying geology, glaciology and the atmosphere at the Halley research station located on the Brunt Ice Shelf. The lab has been torn down and rebuilt many times over the decades, and took its most recent form in 2012 when the Halley VI Research Station - a mobile, modular structure - delivered its first scie...

Here's How A Perfectly Rectangular Iceberg Is Floating In Antarctica
A college-campus-size iceberg spotted on the Antarctic Peninsula margins is upending public expectations of classic Titanic-esque icebergs with sharp spires jutting from the ocean surface.

After Saudi's Musings, Icebergs To Rescue In Drought-Hit Cape Town
South Africa plans to tow icebergs from Antarctica to supply fresh water to a city in the grip of drought. Earlier this year, Cape Town came within weeks of shutting off all its taps and forcing residents to queue for water rations at public standpipes
