Scientists monitoring the giant A68a iceberg from space reveal that a huge amount of freshwater was released as it melted around the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia. An estimated 152 billion ...

The formation of giant icebergs like A23a could become more frequent with rising temperatures. These events, although natural, risk having increasing impacts on marine ecosystems and ocean currents.

It is currently 173 miles (280km) away. Countless birds and seals died on South Georgia's icy coves and beaches when past giant icebergs stopped them feeding. "Icebergs are inherently dangerous.

The world’s largest iceberg which is visible from space is heading on a collision course towards a remote British territory. Dubbed A23a, the giant ice sheet first broke off from Antarctica in ...

"Icebergs are inherently dangerous. I would be extraordinarily happy if it just completely missed us," Simon Wallace, captain of South Georgia government vessel Pharos, told BBC News. This isn't the ...

A research mission to determine the impact of the giant A-68a iceberg on one of the world’s most important ecosystems gets underway next month. A team of scientists, led by British Antarctic ...

Giant icebergs are also more likely to become more common because of climate change. As ocean temperatures become warmer, Antarctica becomes more unstable, with more giant ice sheets breaking away ...
