Greenland ice sheet as seen from space. An ice sheet is a body of ice which covers a land area of continental size - meaning that it exceeds 50,000 km 2. [4] The currently existing two ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica have a much greater area than this minimum definition, measuring at 1.7 million km 2 and 14 million km 2, respectively.
Apache Iceberg is a high performance open-source format for large analytic tables. Iceberg enables the use of SQL tables for big data while making it possible for engines like Spark , Trino , Flink , Presto , Hive , Impala , StarRocks, Doris, and Pig to safely work with the same tables, at the same time.

A23a is a large tabular iceberg which calved from the Filchner–Ronne Ice Shelf in 1986. It was stuck on the sea bed for many years but then started moving in 2020. As of January 2025, its area is about 3,500 square kilometres (1,400 sq mi), which makes it the current largest iceberg in the world.
An iceberg in the Arctic Ocean. An iceberg is a piece of fresh water ice more than 15 meters (16 yards) long [1] that has broken off a glacier or an ice shelf and is floating freely in open water. [2] [3] Smaller chunks of floating glacially derived ice are called "growlers" or "bergy bits".
Ice core sample taken from drill. An ice core is a core sample that is typically removed from an ice sheet or a high mountain glacier.Since the ice forms from the incremental buildup of annual layers of snow, lower layers are older than upper ones, and an ice core contains ice formed over a range of years.
One-layer EBM with blackbody surface. Dimensionless models have also been constructed with functionally separated atmospheric layers from the surface. The simplest of these is the zero-dimensional, one-layer model, [19] which may be readily extended to an arbitrary number of atmospheric layers. The surface and atmospheric layer(s) are each ...
In May 2021, Iceberg A-76 broke off the northwest corner of the shelf. At 4320 km 2, [4] it is larger than Majorca, several times larger than Iceberg A-74 which calved in the same year, or approximately 14% the size of Belgium. The ice of the Filchner–Ronne ice shelf can be as thick as 600 m; the water below is about 1400 m deep at the ...
