  1. Saw some #icebergs yesterday at Fjallsarlon. They're so cool, breaking off the Glacier, and lazily floating out to sea. #iceland

  2. Remarkable. I don’t understand why the currents in this patch of sea seem to move icebergs in opposite directions. I must look into why that happens.

    A huge iceberg basically falls apart in 2.5 hours in this 10-minute timelapse video from earlier this week.

  3. 💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: 🧊🌊 #Calving is the term for when large pieces of #ice break off #glaciers in a thunderous, impressive spectacle, creating new #icebergs.

    This #video of #Monacobreen, a tidewater glacier in #Svalbard, #Norway, provides a good demonstration of calving and the #waves it can create.

  7. new found land

    Whiteness enough off that coast to last a summer,
    with chunks sized to drift among swells
    like lost boats rising bottoms up to glimmer,

    then dropping from a coastal watcher's view
    halfway from here to wherever it is sky
    comes down to touch water, blue on blue,

    or even larger continents of white
    shot through with green, shouldering breakers
    with unhurried calm, things for night

    to break on, or even day. You and I,
    not having seen such before, go out
    to frame each other with one in a camera's eye

    and watch a schooner nosing among bays
    scalloped along fringes of the beast.
    The little ship goes near, but turns away

    over and over to run, a cur who knows how strong
    the behemoth it harries, how final its mere touch.
    The white rock nothing notes, but wades along,

    a mindless thing, and yet it knows command: we
    think of the Titanic, sleeping in her mud --
    having discharged frail cargo on the sea.

    Newfoundland, Canada
    An iceberg floats near the shore at Mistaken Point ecological reserve. Large sections of ice break off from Baffin Island and Greenland every spring and drift down the stretch of water along the coast known as Iceberg Alley.

  11. Inside the race to understand Greenland’s ‘climate tipping point’.

    An international team of scientists is determined to understand just how quickly Greenland’s melting glaciers are pushing the Atlantic Ocean towards a “critical climate tipping point”.

    They’ll also trial a prototype ‘Early Warning System’ for glacier change in Greenland, as ice melt continues to accelerate.
