Schelfeis

Bildinfo und Lizenz

Bildinfo

• Schelfeis in der Antarktis: die Eiswand ist gut 60 bis 70 Meter hoch. Unter Wasser wird die Mächtigkeit (Diche) auf gut 300 Meter geschätzt. Schelfeis entsteht, wenn die Eismassen von Gletschern das offene Meer erreichen. Breche Teile des Schelfeises ab, schwimmen sie als Tafeleisberge im Wasser.
  

• The Getz Ice Shelf extended several miles into the ocean from the Getz glacier as it emptied into the ocean along the Antarctic coast. The vertical face of the ice shelf was almost 200 feet high and was estimated to extend another 1000 feet below the ocean surface. This photo was taken from NASA's DC-8 flying science laboratory during an IceBridge mission flight.
