Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Large icebergs typically break off from glaciers, which are massive bodies of ice that form on land and flow slowly outward into the ocean. Sea ice and ice and snowstorms at high latitudes may contribute to the overall ice content of the ocean, but they do not tend to form the large individual icebergs that are seen floating in the ocean. Summer thawing may contribute to the overall melt of glaciers, but again, individual icebergs tend to break off in a more sudden and dramatic way.
