4 'scenarios' are happening with icebergs 1,000 billion tons, the largest history in recent times in Antarctica

The iceberg is symbolized by A68, weighing over 1,000 billion tons, about four times the size of London, just off the Larsen C iceberg on July 12. And these are things that can happen with the largest iceberg in this history.

The iceberg slowly drifted away

After breaking off the ice shelf, this giant iceberg will not drift quickly. Most likely the iceberg will follow the coast and go to the Atlantic Ocean through ocean currents.

Icebergs will make noise

When an ice sheet separates from the ice shelf, the ocean will be disturbed. In 2000, after the B-15, the largest iceberg ever observed, separated from the Ross ice shelf, when monitoring underwater sound with a hydrophone, scientists received a strange signal from the distance. thousands of kilometers.

Thanks to the received signal, they found the remainder of the giant B-15 ice sheet, continuing to disintegrate, causing the water to fill the slots, cracks and create a loud noise.

Fragments of broken ice can float for years

The iceberg and its fragments can 'wander' in the ocean for many years, depending on how fast they reach the warmer waters.

After 15 years of separation from the Ross ice shelf, 8 fragments of the original B-15 ice sheet still float on the ocean.

Larsen C ice shelves may continue to break

According to scientists, this huge iceberg event does not have a major impact on climate change, but it makes Larsen C ice shelf less stable. Larsen C may continue to be segregated like the case of Larsen B ice shelf lost a large part in 2002.
