New study redefines understanding of where icebergs put meltwater into the Southern Ocean

Some icebergs that break off of Antarctica are massive—the size of New York City—but previously these floating cities of freshwater were largely ignored in climate models. A new study by scientists at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego and the University of North Carolina Wilmington (UNCW) has provided the first-of-its-kind model for how these icebergs decay as they drift around the frozen continent.
