Tabular Iceberg
Tabular Iceberg : Also called: table iceberg; formerly called barrier iceberg: An iceberg which has broken off from an ice shelf. Newly formed tabular icebergs have nearly vertical sides and flat tops. In the Antarctic, they may be tens of miles wide, up to 100 miles long, and as much as 1000 feet thick with about 100 feet exposed above the sea surface. In the Arctic, the large icebergs of this type are called ice islands, but they are considerably smaller than the largest of the antarctic variety
