The trillion-ton slab of ice named A23a could slam into South Georgia Island and get stuck or be guided around it by currents.
The study also found that more than half of the glaciers (62%) undergo seasonal cycles in glacier calving—when large chunks of ice break away due to higher ocean and air temperatures.
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 ...
