The seaward side of the Filchner-Ronne ice shelf is divided into Eastern (Filchner) 79°00′S 40°00′W and the larger Western (Ronne) 78°30′S 61°00′W sections by Berkner Island. The whole ice shelf covers some 430,000 km², making it the second largest ice shelf in Antarctica, after the Ross Ice Shelf.
The Ronne Ice Shelf is located in Antarctica. The Ronne Ice Shelf is bordered on the west by the southernmost part of the Antarctic Peninsula. It surrounds an island called Berkner Island.
The South Pole sits on Antarctica's ice sheet, which covers 98% of the continent. The Ross Ice Shelf may be the closest to the South Pole, even though it is securely attached to the ice sheet and its connecting boundary is imprecise.
Vinson Massif is the highest mountain of Antarctica, lying in the Sentinel Range of the Ellsworth Mountains, which stand above the Ronne Ice Shelf near the base of the Antarctic Peninsula.
West Antarctica includes the Antarctic Peninsula and its offshore islands such as Adelaide Island, Marie Byrd Land, the Rockefeller Plateau, the Hollick-Kenyon Plateau, and a host of ice shelves such as the giant Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf on the Weddell Sea, and the Ross Ice Shelf.
The Ross Ice Shelf is located in Antarctica. It is the largest ice shelf in Antarctica and is about the size of France.
An ice shelf is a floating platform of ice that forms where a glacier or ice sheet flows down to a coastline and onto the ocean surface. The thickness of ice shelves can range from about 100 to 1000 meters (328 to 3280 ft).
The Filchner-Ronne ice shelf is attached to the Antarctic continent.
The Ronne ice shelf
The original name for the ice shelf after it was discovered in the late 1940s was changed from the Lassiter Ice ShelfAccording to its Wikipedia entry:"... the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) approved the name Ronne Ice Shelf for this large ice shelf, on the basis of first sighting and exploration of the ice shelf by Ronne and parties under his leadership. The shelf is therefore named for Edith Ronne, the wife of Finn Ronne and RARE Expedition member."This naming process took place after IGY during the late 1950s.Today, properly it is attached to the Filchner ice shelf and is referenced as the Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf.
The Ross Ice Shelf -- as large as France, is one, and another is the Ronne Larsen Ice Shelf.
nothing
The Antarctic continent is south of the Ronne Ice Shelf. All of the Antarctic continent is surrounded by the Southern Ocean. You can find the Weddell Sea north of the Ronne.
You may be thinking of the Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf.
Europe
Berkner Island is a large island in Antarctica. It is surrounded by the Ronne Ice Shelf. The Ronne Ice Shelf is located between the Antarctic Peninsula and Queen Maud Land.
