2. Floating shelf - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floating_shelf

   A floating shelf can be supported on hidden rods or bars that have been attached to studs. A thick floating shelf may be made of a hollow-core shelf glued to a cleat. [6] A floating shelf may have two or more channels open from the back towards, but without reaching, the front, into which slide fasteners attached to the wall, typically held in ...

3. Anchor ice - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anchor_ice

   Anchor ice is most commonly observed in fast-flowing rivers during periods of extreme cold, at the mouths of rivers flowing into very cold seawater, in the shallow sub or intertidal during or after storms when the air temperature is below the freezing point of the water, and the subtidal in the Antarctic along ice shelves or near floating ...

4. Filchner–Ronne Ice Shelf - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filchner–Ronne_Ice_Shelf

   The Filchner ice shelf is the eastern part of the Filchner–Ronne ice shelf. It is bounded on the west by Berkner Island and on the east by Coats Land. The east part of this shelf was discovered in January–February 1912 by the German Antarctic Expedition under Wilhelm Filchner. Filchner named the feature for Kaiser Wilhelm, but the Emperor ...

5. Sea ice - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_ice

   Sea ice is a composite material made up of pure ice, liquid brine, air, and salt. The volumetric fractions of these components—ice, brine, and air—determine the key physical properties of sea ice, including thermal conductivity, heat capacity, latent heat, density, elastic modulus, and mechanical strength.

6. Iceberg - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iceberg

   Icebergs in Greenland as filmed by NASA in 2015. An iceberg is a piece of freshwater ice more than 15 meters (16 yards) long [1] that has broken off a glacier or an ice shelf and is floating freely in open water. [2][3] Smaller chunks of floating glacially derived ice are called "growlers" or "bergy bits". [4][5] Much of an iceberg is below the ...

   Past sea level. Comparison of two sea level reconstructions during the last 500 million years. The scale of change during the last glacial/interglacial transition is indicated with a black bar. [1] Sea level rise since the Last Glacial Maximum. Holocene sea level rise. Global or eustatic sea level has fluctuated significantly over Earth's history.
