⚠️Nuevo #Iceberg de >300km2 en Glaciar PineIsland (PIG) en #Antartica! Este Glaciar generó Icebergs gigantes (>200km2 cada uno) también en 2013/15/17/18, retrocediendo >35km desde 2011. Hielo perdido por este Glaciar aporta con 5-10% a alza de #NivelDelMar.worldview.earthdata.nasa.gov
Debido a las nubes, las imágenes de hoy de Aqua🛰 no permiten apreciar al nuevo Iceberg completamente separado del frente del Glaciar. Pero las imágenes del radar del Sentinel1🛰 (q es capaz de “ver” a través de las nubes☁️) no dejan lugar a dudas
Las imágenes satelitales a veces no permiten dimensionar el tamaño de estos eventos. La superficie del nuevo Iceberg es equivalente a alrededor de la mitad del área de grandes ciudades como Santiago o Madrid.
Esta explicación aplica también para lo q está sucediendo con el Glaciar Pine Island
