A massive iceberg, approximately 6 km long and 4 km wide, drifting toward the southern coast of Greenland, has broken away from sea ice and continues its journey. Experts indicate that the iceberg may break apart in the coming days.
It has been reported that a giant iceberg, approximately 6 kilometers long and 4 kilometers wide, drifting towards the southern coast of Greenland, continues its journey.
5.7 KILOMETERS LONG
In a written statement on the official website of the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI), it was stated that a "table-shaped" giant iceberg, 5.7 kilometers long and 4 kilometers wide, which broke off from the Nioghalvfjerds Glacier and traveled 1200 kilometers, continues to drift towards southern Greenland.
DMI Ice Mapping Specialist Hans Henrik Light, whose views were included in the statement, emphasized that the iceberg moved with sea ice for a long time, saying, "The giant iceberg has now completely separated from the sea ice and entered a new phase in its journey. It has become more vulnerable to external factors."
SEEN EVERY 2-3 YEARS
Light stated that the iceberg will break apart into smaller icebergs in the coming days, noting that icebergs ranging from 3 to 6 kilometers in size are seen every two or three years.
