Last week, the Brunt Ice Shelf broke away from Antarctica after many years of gradual fracturing. The calving formed a new iceberg twice the size of New York City, with an area of about 600 square miles (1,550 square kilometers). Scientists from the British Antarctic Survey say this event is the result of natural forces, not climate change.
