	Antarctic Ice Shelf Collapses, March 2002
		The area lost by the shelf was was almost solely the region covered by melt ponds in late January.
		One idea is that meltwater seeping between ice crystals and warming of the shelf as a whole, reduces the fracture toughness of the ice so that the shelf shatters under the same stresses imposed by local geography and the flow it used to tolerate.
		In particular, the next shelf to the south, the Larsen C, is very near the stability limit, and may start to recede in the coming decade if the warming trend continues.

	Antarctic Ice Shelf Collapses: Global Warming Blamed
		An Antarctic ice shelf the size of a small country has disintegrated under the impact of global warming, scientists said March 19, 2002.
		Over the last five years the shelf has lost a total of 5,700 square kilometres (2,280 square miles), and is now about 40 percent the size of its previous minimum stable extent.
		Meltwater acts to enhance fracturing of the shelf by filling smaller cracks and forcing them through the thickness of the ice due to the weight of the water.

		A century ago, the entire northern coast of the island was reported to be fringed with a continuous ice shelf.

	Bikini Science--Shelf Bra
		The shelf bra, also called a platform bra, is characterized by a multipiece cup mounted above an elastic facing and cup frame (BM4110).
		The shelf plays a major development role in the early 1940s as the belly opens up (SS4110).
		Because the shelf bra (or halter) has a strong horizontal foundation component it works well with culotte that also have strong horizontal elements.

	Shelf Talker (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		The term "shelf talker" refers to any type of merchandising aid, which simultaneously masks the face of a shelf and advertises the product sitting on that shelf.
		Typically, they consist of a flap, which is designed to adhere to the shelf via some adhesive, and a graphical portion, which hangs down in front of the shelf face.
		But the range of shelf talkers available to the collector is far from limited to those made by Kenner; quite a few Star Wars licensees resorted to this cheap form of signage to aid the sale of their products.

		A marine geological investigation was conducted in front of the Larsen-B Ice Shelf during cruise 01-07 of the USAP research vessel N. Palmer.
		This study was part of a multi-year investigation of the sediment processes and paleohistory of the Larsen Ice Shelf (NW Weddell Sea) begun in May 2000, first proposed to the US NSF in May of 1998, and approved for funding in December 1998.
		This surface veneer of ice rafted clasts is underlain by 20 to 60 cm of silty clay, followed by a poorly sorted granulated sediment and, finally, a gray diamicton (interpreted as a till).

		These include possible melting of portions of the polar ice cover, changes in export of water to the global ocean, and alteration of the food web with significant consequences for native populations.
		From the physical oceanographic perspective the goal is straightforward: understand how shelf water is transferred, at the continental shelfbreak, to the interior basin in order to help maintain the “cold halocline” of the Arctic Ocean.
		This is the salty layer at mid-depth which shields the surface ice cover from the warm deep water.

	Global warming blamed as huge Antarctic ice shelf collapses
		NSIDC researcher Ted Scambos said the ice disintegrated because of the presence of ponded meltwater on the surface in late summer as the climate warms.
		"The shelf retreats that have occurred so far have had few consequences for sea-level rise, but break-ups in some other areas like the Ross Ice Shelf could lead to increases in ice flow off the Antarctic and cause sea level to rise," Scambos said.
		The largest ice shelf in the world is the 500,000 square kilometre (200,000 square mile) Ross Shelf south of New Zealand.

		Since 2002, when the Larsen B ice shelf broke away from the coast of the Antarctic Peninsula, scientists have witnessed profound increases in the flow of nearby glaciers into the Weddell Sea.
		The Scambos study examined the period right after the Larsen B ice shelf collapse to try to isolate the immediate effects of ice shelf loss on the glaciers.
