Abstract
For three years the iceberg known as A-68A—one of Earth’s
largest ever—floated toward South Georgia island, a pristine
sanctuary for penguins and seals. Scientists warned of great
damage and obstructed access to feeding grounds should
the iceberg run aground off the island’s coastal shelf. But the
currents in Iceberg Alley contributed to a happier outcome.
