ЧТО ОЗНАЧАЕТ СЛОВО ICE SHELF
Ледяной пол
Ледяной шельф представляет собой толстую плавучую платформу льда, которая образуется там, где ледник или ледниковый щит стекают к береговой линии и на поверхность океана. Полки для льда можно найти только в Антарктиде, Гренландии и Канаде. Граница между плавающим ледяным шельфом и заземленным льдом, который его питает, называется заземляющей линией. Толщина шельфовых ледников колеблется от 100 до 1000 метров. Напротив, морской лед образуется на воде, значительно тоньше и образуется на всем протяжении Северного Ледовитого океана. Он также встречается в Южном океане вокруг континента Антарктиды. Ледяные полки главным образом управляются гравитационным давлением от заземленного льда. Этот поток постоянно перемещает лед от линии заземления к передней части шельфа. Предполагалось, что основным механизмом потери массы на шельфовых ледниках был айсберг, в котором кусок льда отрывается от передней стороны шельфа. Исследование, проведенное НАСА и университетскими исследователями, опубликованное в выпуске Science of Science 14 июня 2013 года, показало, однако, что океанские воды, тающие позади антарктических шельфовых ледников, отвечают за большую часть потери массы шельфа ледяного покрова континента.
