Congratulations!
You’ve just learned how to estimate the speed,
acceleration, and trajectory of an iceberg using satellite images.
Here are some important things you should have learned:
- Icebergs exhibit translational/linear motion
- Icebergs exhibit acceleration/non-linear motion
- Icebergs exhibit curved/rotational motions
- Icebergs exhibit complex motions
- There several factors that impact the motion of tabular
icebergs including meteorological (weather), glaciological (ice
processes) and oceanographic influences
