My mum said it was 'Greater Antarctica' but I don't know. Search the internet if your not sure. You should know the answers anyway.

∙ 13y agoThe thickest ice in the world can be found in Antarctica, particularly in the central part of the continent where the ice sheet can reach over 3 miles (5 kilometers) in thickness. This ice is layered over millions of years and is a critical component of Earth's climate system.

∙ 14y agoantarctica has thick ice because it is a land mass that is freazed so it has really big ice

∙ 12y agoThe thickest ice in Antarctica that has been measured -- by estimate -- at the South Pole, where it is nearly two miles thick.

The Amazon Rainforest in South America is considered the thickest forest in the world. It is home to a diverse range of plant and animal species, and plays a crucial role in regulating the Earth's climate.
The thickest layer of the Earth is the mantle, which is approximately 2,900 kilometers (1,800 miles) thick. It lies between the outer core and the crust.
The ratio of the thinnest layer to the thickest layer depends on the context. In a general sense, it could be any fraction from 0 to 1 (thinnest being 0 and thickest being 1).
The mantle is the thickest layer of the Earth, extending from the crust to the outer core. It makes up approximately 84% of Earth's volume and is composed of solid rock material that flows slowly over geological timescales.
To show the layers of the Earth from thinnest to thickest, you would start with the crust (thinnest), followed by the mantle and then the core (thickest). The crust is divided into the oceanic crust and the continental crust, with the oceanic crust being thinner. The Earth's core is further divided into the outer core and the inner core, with the inner core being the thickest layer.
The thickest piece of ice ever recorded was about 4,000 meters (13,000 feet) thick. This ice sheet is found in Antarctica and is known as the East Antarctic Ice Sheet.
The thickest ice is found in East Antarctica. For example, Lake Vostok, a sub-glacial lake found in East Antarctica has a surface measured at -1,640.4′.
8.5 feet
The thickest piece of ice in the North Pole is typically found in the central part of the polar ice cap, where the ice has had more time to accumulate and grow thicker over the years. This area is often characterized by multi-year ice that can be several meters thick.
Yes.
The thickest ice sheet in the Laurentide Ice Sheet was centered over northern Canada, particularly in regions like Quebec and the Hudson Bay area. This region experienced the greatest ice accumulation during the peak of the last glacial period.
The ice is extremely thick, I believe getting to 3km thick at the thickest
It is difficult to determine the "sentence of thickest" as this phrase does not have a standard meaning in English grammar or language. Could you provide more context or clarify the question?
Ice that is 2km thick can be found in areas such as the Greenland Ice Sheet or the Antarctic Ice Sheet. These ice sheets are massive bodies of ice that cover the land, with the Antarctic Ice Sheet being the thickest, reaching up to 4.8km in some parts.

ice is generally thicker in the middle of the lake once the lake completely freezes, as the edge of the land at the edge of the lake warms the waters edge making it thinner ice.
Since not all parts of Antarctica have been mapped insofar as its ice sheet thickness is concerned, it may not be possible to identify the absolute thickest ice area. What we do know, however, is that the South Pole sits on ice that is at least 10,000 feet thick. As well, we know that the Vostok Research Station sits on ice that is more than 11,000 feet above mean sea level. As well, in the same area, Lake Vostok exists 13,000 feet under the surface of the ice,
