Summary
| Description |
English: These images show the iceberg and glacier tongue immediately before and after the collision. Chunks of sea ice float in the water between the smooth iceberg and the coast. It is clear that the iceberg and the glacier tongue are trapping the ice in place. The water beyond the tongue and the iceberg is black in these images, and contains far less ice. |
