ICE rafts

ICE rafts, or ice rafts, are large floating masses of ice that break apart from glaciers or ice sheets and drift across the ocean. These natural formations can be vast, spanning miles, and serve as habitats for marine life and as indicators of climate change. As global temperatures rise, more ice breaks off, leading to increased ice raft formation and contributing to sea level rise. ICE rafts influence ocean circulation, weather patterns, and ecosystems, making them a significant component of Earth's climate system.
