Talk:Filchner–Ronne Ice Shelf

Untitled

Ummm, why is the title of the article different than all the self-references in the body of the article: Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf versus Ronne-Filchner Ice Shelf?168.179.221.164 (talk) 17:24, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

It can be found on internet under both names. However, the name of the international research program is called Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf Programme (FRISP) and has had several programs since it was initiated in 1973 - http://neptune.gsfc.nasa.gov/wais/documentation/chap6.html - see 6.2.1. Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf Programme - So for article consistency it should be called the same in the article. Petersam (talk) 08:00, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

Ronne was American and Filchner German. Filchner was first, but Ronne is larger :-) William M. Connolley (talk) 10:17, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

New Antarctic ice shelf threatened by warming

Replaced missing article [1] and added "indirectly" since the calving of ice shelves into icebergs does not add directly to sea level rise (a melting ice cube in your drink doesn't cause your glass to overflow), but as the article indicates, it enables terrestrial glaciers to migrate onto the shelf and add to the ice load.

Excerpt of this article to ice shelf

I am currently working on ice shelf and plan to use several excerpts of the "most important" ice shelves for the section on disruption. So I have transcribed this one now. Which are the other important ice shelves that are disintegrating and for which we have up to date articles? EMsmile (talk) 09:52, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
