In open water, as is seen in the webcam photo I have just viewed,
icebergs move. A lot. Even if they were stuck, with the sun circling
around, they would appear to move or at the very least appear to change
shape with shadows moving across them.

If you back up on their web site, you'll see where on the map they are
located. You can get a general idea that they are over 2,000 kilometres
from the South Pole.

I have put a link at the bottom of this post that will take you to a
WEBCAM in antarctica in which is of pretty high quality with icebergs
in the distance and everything. I do have a few questions about these
pictures.

1--- Do ICEBERGS move? The reason I ask is because they seem to
change shape and size within a matter of hours on any given day. I was
always under the impression that icebergs changing was a process that
took days or even weeks. Can they actually change dimensions within a
given day?

2 --- How close is this webcam to the actual south pole? I mean, it
looks fairly cold there but not anything like I have seen in pictures
of the south pole. I have been looking around trying to find out where
that webcam is but I'm not having much luck.

Thanks in advance.
