Summary

Description

Deutsch: Tafeleisberge sind sehr selten in der Arktis zu finden, sie sind eigentlich eine typische Erscheinung für die Antarktis. Sie entstehen durch Kalbung von Schelfeis, das in der Arktis kaum vorkommt. Dieser Tafeleisberg ist geschätzte 10 bis 12m hoch und hat eine Fläche von etwa einem halben Fußballfeld.
