A 1550 square km (963 sq mi.) iceberg, designated A81 broke off Antarctica’s Brunt Ice Shelf. A time-lapse of the 'calving process' was captured by satellites. Credit; ESA - European Space Agency ...

Following the calving of the A-81 iceberg at the end of January 2023, the Brunt Ice Shelf is moving faster than before. It is currently moving approximately 4 meters a day towards the sea ...

These cracks are the precursor to ice shelf calving, in which large chunks of ice break off a glacier and fall into the sea. Such events happen often at Pine Island Glacier—the iceberg observed ...

It found that while there has been broad ice shelf loss due to warming temperatures, the frequency and size of major iceberg calving events has not changed significantly. This study was led by ...

“We're observing increasing speed on this largest remaining ice shelf,” Jason Box ... to break off from a glacier - a process called calving - they are generally not this large.

U.S. Forest Service on Thursday says more calving possible, people should stay far away from glacier. Update, 6:15 p.m.

They also found that atmospheric rivers played a role in triggering 13 of 21 iceberg calving events between ... Intense atmospheric rivers can weaken ice shelf stability at the Antarctic Peninsula ...

Helen Fricker: "Iceberg calving is the natural background mass-loss process" In and of itself, probably very little. The Larsen C shelf is a mass of floating ice formed by glaciers that have ...
