Pushed by wind and the Labrador Current, Greenland-produced icebergs drift southward.
受海風(fēng)和拉布拉多洋流的推動(dòng)，來(lái)自格陵蘭島的冰山逐漸向南漂移。
Many become stuck in shallow waters, but those that stay in the main current make it to the open sea, where they last for approximately two years before melting completely.
許多冰山擱淺在淺水域，另一些冰山則隨洋流匯入無(wú)垠的大海。它們進(jìn)入海洋約兩年后會(huì)完全消融。
Since typically only 1/7th of an iceberg is visible above the ocean surface, it is almost impossible to gauge its size with the naked eye.
通常情況下，冰山只有的1/7的體積會(huì)浮出海面，因此僅憑肉眼幾乎難以估量冰山的實(shí)際規(guī)模。
The actual size of North Atlantic icebergs varies, from a small car to a ten-story building.
北大西洋冰山的實(shí)際大小各不相同，小到一輛小型汽車(chē)，大到一棟十層建筑。
The largest Arctic berg measured almost seven miles long and over three-and-half miles wide, but these Northern icebergs are dwarfed by their Antarctic counterparts,
最大的北極冰山大約長(zhǎng)7英里，寬超過(guò)3.5英里。但是北極冰山無(wú)法與南極冰山相匹敵。
the largest of which measured an amazing 207 miles long and 62 miles wide.
最大的南極冰山長(zhǎng)達(dá)207英里，寬62英里。
