Icebergsin the Ross Sea (Antarctica, January 23rd,2006).Aniceberg is a floating fragment of a glacier or ice shelf – it isnot counted as sea ice. Iceberg formation (and ice shelf retreat)may increase in regions of Antarctica where sea ice is declining,because the sea ice protects ice shelves by cooling the airtemperatures and dampening the waves. -- source link
