El Centro Nacional de Hielo de Estados Unidos (USNIC) confirms ic unberg ysberg is descending from the iceberg giant A-68A In the Océano Atlántico Sur, with 53 kilometers of length for up to 18 years.
This phenomenon originates a large griet in A-68A near where the new, floating, free-flowing water is released A-68G. If this portion generates another portion in the next few days, it will be sufficiently large as to be called also.
The A-68G was first discovered by Laura Gerrish of the British Antarctic Survey and confirmed by USNIC’s heel analyst Michael Lowe using the images from Sentinel-1A del 28 de enero.

A-68A, which was the mayor ysberg conocido, finally turned the surest in his trayectoria a Georgia del Sur, do not if a catastrophe occurs for its rich ecosystem if the ysberg embarrancaba ante su costa y el mar en la zona veía aumentada la presence dua dulce por el deshielo.
The iceberg crossing preoccupation with the iceberg is very close to the edge of the island’s submarine platform, an area where the water flows relatively deep: it is less than 200 meters deep. The scientists believe that the iceberg quill is very much in demand due to the loss of its flotation line, which means that it could be engaged in the navy and quarrel allied. But this is finally not uncommon.
The A-68A has since December 2020 the largest iceberg of the world of existing ones at this time, but the tamana of its principal nucleus has been reduced since midway through the demembrement of three of its external parts. Now, with the new key, it has been purchased more, passing the A-68G.

The data published by the European Espace Agency on 23 December indicate that the iceberg’s main part currently has an extension of 2,606 square kilometers, while at the moment of its formation – in July 2017- has 5,664 square kilometers.
Since its “birth” in 2017, the iceberg has traveled miles of miles from the Larsen C platform, in Antarctica. In the present verano austral, the great island of high-flying has accelerated its disintegration.
