Icebergs
Image Description from historic lecture booklet: "When a glacier enters the sea the water buoys the ice up, causing great masses to break off, forming icebergs. Other masses are broken away by undercutting along the water's edge. The bergs from Greenland rarely project 200 feet out of water, and most of them not more than 100 feet, but they are sometimes a mile or more across."
