  1. Mega-iceberg melt affects important marine #ecosystem

    The mega #iceberg #A68A, which started out four times the size of Greater London, calved off the #LarsenIceShelf on the #Antarctic Peninsula in 2017. Scientists tracked the iceberg on its 4000 km journey across the South Ocean until it reached the sub-Antarctic island of #SouthGeorgia, where it broke up and melted over a three-month period from late 2020 to February 2021.
