Iceberg Almost The Size Of Greater London Breaks Off In Antarctica Iceberg Almost The Size Of Greater London Breaks Off In Antarctica The research body said the iceberg measuring 1,270 square kilometres (490 square miles) had broken off from the 150-metre-thick Brunt Ice Shelf in a process called calving . This came almost a decade after scientists first saw massive cracks had formed in the shelf. London, United Kingdom: A vast iceberg almost the size of Greater London has broken away from the Antarctic ice shelf near a British research station, the British Antarctic Survey said Friday. The research body said the iceberg measuring 1,270 square kilometres (490 square miles) had broken off from the 150-metre-thick Brunt Ice Shelf in a process called calving . ....
Climate change risk to icy East Antarctica Is Antarctica really safe from climate change? A new study suggests even the icy east of the frozen continent could be at risk, with consequences for global sea levels. Scientists say the changes could be irreversible. While the Arctic is melting twice as fast as the rest of the planet, the icy regions around the south pole were long considered immune to climate change. But melting glaciers on the Antarctic Peninsula in recent years sparked doubts in the scientific community about just how stable the western region of Antarctica really is. Only the huge icy vastness of Eastern Antarctica still appeared to be safe from the perils of a warming climate. Now, experts from Germany s Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) have published findings indicating that this too might no longer be the case. ....
The first indication that a calving event was imminent came in November 2020 when a new chasm called North Rift headed towards another large chasm near the Stancomb-Wills Glacier Tongue 35 kms away, BAS said in a statement on Friday. Nort ....

Last Updated: Scientists accidentally Discover Life Far Underneath The Ice Shelves Of The Antarctic The discovery was made by scientists from British Antarctic Survey, who accidentally stumbled upon the stationary animals while collecting sediment samples. Scientists have discovered life underneath the Antarctic ice shelf, where it was previously thought no living things could survive. The discovery was made by scientists from British Antarctic Survey (BAS), who accidentally stumbled upon the stationary animals while collecting sediment samples. The sponges-like animals, including several potentially unknown species, were found under complete darkness and with temperatures of -2.2 degrees Celcius about 260 km away from the open ocean. ....
