Ice. Water is liquid ice and is found in the Southern Ocean that surrounds Antarctica. Ninety-eight percent of the continent is covered with ice.
Any water in Antarctica forms into ice, either sea ice or fresh-water ice.
salt water ice and fresh water ice
Antarctica's ice sheet contains about 70% of the earth's fresh water.
Panama, because the water would be vapor in that climate. Water would be ice crystals in Antarctica.
More than half, about 70% of the earth's fresh water is stored in Antarctica's ice sheet, which covers 98% of the continent. As to why, the answer is that the formation of ice from fresh water is most prolific on the continent of Antarctica. This process has taken place for millenia.
I would say under water since Antarctica is a continent (land) that is mostly covered in ice and snow more so than the few glacial ice sheets that extend out over the water.
An ice shelf forms over water. Antarctica is a continent and is covered -- 98% of the continent -- by an ice sheet. (Ice sheet because it covers more than 50 000 km of land area.)
Yes and it is sitting on the landmass of Antarctica. the Arctic ice cap is floating in water.
Antarctica
Ice in Antarctica isn't counted in 'chunks'. The ice sheet that covers 98% of Antarctica stores 90% of the earth's ice and 70% of the earth's fresh water.
The frozen fresh water that forms the ice sheet -- covering 98% of Antarctica's surface -- is exceptionally clean. The sea water that surrounds Antarctica is also clean,, requiring no more than removing the salt to make it potable for human consumption.
There is much more ice covering Antarctica -- about 90% of the earth's store of ice -- than in the Arctic.
