Ancient Greenland Rocks Found in Iceland Sheds Light on Late Antique Ice Age
A 2025 study led by geologists Christopher Spencer, Ross Mitchell, and Thomas Gernon identifies ancient Greenland rocks embedded in Icelandic cliffs. These rocks, transported by icebergs over 1500 years ago, confirm glacial expansion during the Late Antique Little Ice Age (LALIA). The findings shed light on past climate anomalies and serve as cruci...

World’s Largest Iceberg A23a Grounds Near South Georgia, Raising Wildlife and Environmental Concerns
The world’s largest iceberg, A23a, has run aground near South Georgia, a key wildlife haven. Scientists are monitoring its impact on marine life, particularly on penguins and seals, as it could disrupt feeding routes. Some experts suggest the iceberg may also enhance ocean productivity by releasing nutrients. If it fragments, it may pose risks to...

World's Largest Iceberg A23a Resumes Journey North After Months of Stagnation
A23a, the largest iceberg in the world, has begun moving again after being trapped in a vortex near the South Orkney Islands. Weighing nearly a trillion tonnes and twice the size of Greater London, the iceberg has been stuck in the Weddell Sea for over three decades. Now on its way north, scientists are studying its potential environmental impacts,...
