An iceberg or ice mountain is a large piece of freshwater ice that has broken off a glacier or an ice shelf and is floating freely in open water. It may subsequently become frozen into pack ice (one form of sea ice). As it drifts into shallower waters, it may come into contact with the seabed, a process referred to as seabed gouging by ice.
The word "iceberg" is a partial loan translation from Dutch ijsberg, literally meaning ice mountain, cognate to Danish isbjerg, German Eisberg, Low Saxon Iesbarg and Swedish isberg.
Because the density of pure ice is about 920 kg/m³, and that of seawater about 1025 kg/m³, typically only one-tenth of the volume of an iceberg is above water (due to Archimedes's Principle). The shape of the underwater portion can be difficult to judge by looking at the portion above the surface. This has led to the expression "tip of the iceberg", for a problem or difficulty that is only a small manifestation of a larger problem.
Icebergs generally range from 1 to 75 metres (3.3 to 246.1 ft) above sea level and weigh 100,000 to 200,000 metric tons (110,000 to 220,000 short tons). The largest known iceberg in the North Atlantic was 168 metres (551 ft) above sea level, reported by the USCG icebreaker East Wind in 1958, making it the height of a 55-story building. These icebergs originate from the glaciers of western Greenland and may have an interior temperature of −15 to −20 °C (5 to −4 °F).

Plot: Time and time again, Cobra has been on the threshhold of global domination, only to be thwarted by the Joes. Now the ruthless terrorist organization has a new ally, the Cobra-La race, led by Golobulus. Golobulus wants to steal the Joes' "Broadcast Energy Transmitter" in order to ripen space spores and mutate the people of Earth. When Duke is injured and the rest of the force immobilized, it's up to the new "rawhides" and Slaughter's Marauders to pick up the slack and save the world

Plot: After yet another defeat inflicted by G.I. Joe, the immediate subordinates of Cobra's leader, Cobra Commander, have finally come to the end of their patience with his apparent incompetence and his inability to achieve real victories. The leader of the research and interrogations wing, Dr. Mindbender, receives a dream showing the solution. His plan is to collect the genetic material of great warriors and military leaders to create a composite clone that would be the perfect leader for Cobra. Now they set out to put this scheme into motion, and G.I. Joe has very little time to learn of this plot before Cobra becomes that much more a dire threat to the world.

Plot: Two deep-sea divers, known only by their nicknames of "Three-Time" and "Forty-Fathoms," find that no place on earth is big enough for both of them at the same time, even the bottom of the ocean. All day long they fight to salvage sunken gold at forty fathoms deep in the ocean, and all night long they fight over dames. This situation continues even when they both go to work for Helen Young, the owner of a tug-boat and a salvage business.

To be more precise, this is a large iceberg breaking up, which had already calved from the icecap. The large ones often collect at the end of the fjord, where it is a bit shallower. The NASA image at the end of the video shows this a bit more clearly** For more information about the Ilulissat Icefjord: http://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/details.cgi?aid=3806 http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/1149 For any licensing requests please contact licensing@break.com

This Iceberg was "calved" by Argentina's Uppsala glacier. While we were passing by it with a catamaran, the huge berg lost a part of itself (look at the right side sinking) and then flipped over with a huge roar. In the process of melting this happens all the time, but it is seldom that it is captured on video WHEN it happens... March 2012...
The largest iceberg in the world B-15 - iceberg , the largest in the world of registered scientists. Berg was from 295 km to 37 km wide ( 183-23 miles ) , an area of 11,000 km ² ( 6,835 miles ²) - larger than the area of Jamaica. Weight iceberg estimated at 3 billion tons. After nearly ten years of the iceberg and not melted . Iceberg broke off the Ross Ice Shelf in March 2000 , not far from Roosevelt Island . Later -15 split into smaller pieces in 2000, 2002 , 2003. The largest of the fragments appeared iceberg B- 15A area of 6,400 km . In November 2003, B- 15A after separation from B-15J walked away from a glacier in the Ross Sea. In December 2003, a small iceberg B- 15K (about 300 km ²) was separated from the B- 15A, and started to drift to the north. 2005 B- 15A passing Drigals...
Tengo que decÃrtelo
No entiendo lo que me pasó
No la volveré a ver, ella no es para mi
Sos la primera, créelo
No lo pude controlar
Ella me vino a conquistar
Y por casualidad, solo casualidad
No me logré despegar
Y ahora que se te vas
Me estoy volviendo loco
Yo lo quiero controlar
Pero no puedo si te vas
A veces perdemos, lo que más queremos
No nos queda más que hablar
Antes de pedir perdón
Te dà toda una explicación
No fué casualidad, no fué casualidad
Ya no querÃa estar con vos
Y ahora que se te vas
Me estoy volviendo loco
Yo lo quiero controlar
Pero no puedo si te vas
Y por casualidad, solo casualidad
Yo no me logré despegar
Y ahora que se te vas
