Sorry for the clickbait title. I knew it was the only way to get people to actually look at my post I know how much you guys love the news here and I thought you may find this interesting. Just recently the MIDAS Project, a UK based project studying the effects of climate change on Antarctica, observed an iceberg twice the volume of Lake Erie, measuring at over 2,300 square miles (Although the size is debated) and 650 feet thick plummet from the Larsen C Ice Shelf to create the third largest iceberg ever recorded. The newly formed iceberg, named A68, weighs more than a trillion tons. The crack that became A68 on the Larsen C shelf was initially noticed in 2011. It is expected that A68 will split apart, however its future is hard to predict due to its massive nature. One scientist from the MIDAS project had this to say [quote]Although this is a natural event, and we’re not aware of any link to human-induced climate change, this puts the ice shelf in a very vulnerable position[/quote] They will continue to watch Antarctica's (former) fourth largest ice shelf to see if it becomes unstable.
