Do large icebergs ever melt?

Yes, they always melt. They absorb thermal energy (as in heat) which will cause it to heat up and melt little by little. I'm not sure this is true. Large icebergs usually break up before they melt, so, technically, they don't melt. It's the smaller ice bergs that melt. The "large icebergs" cease to exist at the point when they break up, so they don't last long enough to melt. Also, some large icebergs end up fusing back into the glacier they calved from. These icebergs cease to exist at that point, before they ever had a chance to melt. One way or another, every iceberg will, eventually, cease to exist. But it's not always by melting.

What is the lifespan of an iceberg?

The lifespan of an iceberg can vary greatly, typically ranging from a few months to several years. Factors influencing this lifespan include the size of the iceberg, water temperature, and environmental conditions. Icebergs can gradually melt as they drift into warmer waters or break apart due to stress and collisions. Ultimately, most icebergs will completely melt away before they drift too far from their origin.
