Using images in time sequence, the scientists at DLR can also observe fissures occurring in the ice before an iceberg is released from the ice mass. In Pine Island Bay in Antarctica, Floricioiu has been watching Iceberg B22A, which, at 81.5 by 44.4 kilometres, is a remnant of an even bigger iceberg from 2002. The new Wide Scan mode allows the satellite to image wider areas.
