Depends on the size. Some may be icebergs, others are glaciers
Thick sheets of ice that can cover large areas of a continent are called continental glaciers or ice caps. Examples of continental glaciers are in Antarctica and Greenland The ice sheets that form in these two locations are up to 3500 meters thick. thank you a lot
These are glaciers.

The ocean waters freeze in winter. This is referred to as sea ice. Ice in the form of glaciers being pushed out over the ocean is called an ice shelf.

Also called ice sheets, they can be called glaciers or continental ice masses. While glaciers, by definition, have to be moving- albeit VERY slowly- ice sheets can just lay there until they move, which could classify them as a glacier.
They are called ice sheets and/or continental glaciers if they cover more than 50,000 square kilometers of land area.continental
