98% of Antarctica is covered in a sheet of ice which means that only 2% is uncovered. :-)
The Antarctic ice sheet contains about 90% of earth's ice.
Nope...lots of land, even unfrozen lakes, under the ice. Basically, Antarctica is a small continent (say the size of Australia) covered by a sheet of ice...and now it's shrinking. no, underneath the ice is rocky land Edited by Danielle Robertson 5/3/2009 :P
No, but 98% of the continent of Antarctica is covered by its ice sheet.
No it does not. Antarctica The term Continental Ice Sheet is given to a glacier that is over 20,000 mi2 (50,000km2 ). As the Greenland Ice Sheet is 660,235 mi2 (1,710,00km2), this puts it well into Continental Ice Sheet size bracket. So even though it is on an island, it's size gives it the right to be classed as a Continental Ice Sheet.
Antarctica's ice sheet holds about 90% of the earth's ice.
Antarctica's ice sheet holds about 90% of the earth's store of permanent ice.
If your question has to do with ice, the answer is two percent of the Antarctic continent is not covered by an ice sheet.
The number you want is about 90%.
yes ice in the antarctica shrink
