Icebergs [electronic resource] : their science and links to global change / Grant R. Bigg, University of Sheffield.
"Icebergs are a prime example of an environmental phenomenon that brings together multiple disciplines in the polar sciences, from the physics of calving and melting to the geology of their solid deposits and sea floor interactions. Icebergs are also increasingly seen to play key roles in past and p...

520 | |a "Icebergs are a prime example of an environmental phenomenon that brings together multiple disciplines in the polar sciences, from the physics of calving and melting to the geology of their solid deposits and sea floor interactions. Icebergs are also increasingly seen to play key roles in past and present climate change through addition of freshwater to the ocean, in providing invaluable information through their debris, in fertilising the polar oceans, and as an increasing hazard to Arctic travel and development"-- |c Provided by publisher. | ||
