| Mega-iceberg, south Atlantic Ocean: 29 March 2003, 180 mm. This very large iceberg had drifted as far north as 40°S, possibly having originated in the region of rapid Larsen ice shelf breakup (more than 1300 mi2) at about 75°S early in 2002. Thousands of icebergs resulted. Despite the oblique angle of view of this image, judging from the lens used, the iceberg is one of the very large ones, probably tens of miles long. Many of the icebergs from the Larsen B shelf display the elongated shape of this berg. |
