What are Icebergs?

Ice bergs are the ones which are the solid forms of fresh water floating freely in open water. These are formed on the oceans like Arctic, North Atlantic, and Southern Oceans. Icebergs float in salt water. The size of icebergs varies widely.

There can be Small bergs which are known as “growlers”. Also there are slightly larger bergs which are known as “bergy bits.” The tallest known iceberg in the North Atlantic was 550 feet (168 m) above sea level. The bulk of an iceberg is below the water and the entire berg was estimated to be as tall as a 55–story building.
