The breakup of the massive Larsen C Ice Shelf in Antarctica is getting closer and will eventually produce an iceberg the size of Delaware prowling the Southern Ocean, according to new NASA data ...

The Larsen C ice shelf of the Antarctic Peninsula is considered to be vulnerable to collapse under certain global warming scenarios, according to researchers. The loss of ice shelves – the part ...

Sentinel-1A image showing the location of the former Conger Ice Shelf. Iceberg C-38 is a Conger remnant, while iceberg C-37 is the product of another recent collapse, that of the Glenzer ice shelf ...

While some ice shelves have collapsed in West Antarctica — notably the much larger Larsen B, in 2002 — the Conger collapse is the first observed in East Antarctica since the era of satellite ...

Researchers found that a thinning of ice melange may have enabled a Delaware-sized iceberg to break off from the Larsen C ice shelf in 2017.

Larsen C is also showing signs that it might be the next ice shelf in line to collapse. "We now have a much clearer picture of the pattern and extent of ice shelf break-ups, both past and present.

These are questions often asked about Larsen C, a huge ice shelf, twice the size of Wales, attached to the eastern edge of the Antarctic Peninsula.

Antarctica’s fourth largest ice shelf, the Larsen C Ice Shelf, is in danger of imminent collapse according to Dr. Andrew Elvidge, who led the study and is a researcher at UEA’s School of ...
