Iceland Glacier Jökulsarlon

Jökulsarlon Lake offers stunning views of the ice cap, a huge ice dome that rises to a height of 3,000 feet (910 m). It spills out into a lagoon 12 miles (19 km) from the jagged glacial hill to the edge of the waterline. The lake was formed only about 60 years ago (1948 is mentioned) when the entire area was less than 100 feet (30 m) from the glacier, which was only 250 yards (230 m) from the Atlantic Ocean and 2 miles (3.2 km). ) away from Vatnajökull. Vatnajokull was on the ocean and dumped icebergs into the ocean. However, every year he began to rapidly drift inland, leaving deep gorges on the way, which were filled with melt water and large pieces of ice. These icebergs gather at the mouth of a shallow lake outlet, melt into smaller ice blocks and roll into the sea. In summer, icebergs melt and roll down the canal into the sea. The lake does not freeze in winter. Ice water and soil are a unique ecological phenomenon. Jokulsarlon Lake, the "glacial lake", is reported to have doubled in size in the last 15 years. Huge blocks of ice that have broken off from the edge of Vatnajökull are about 30 m (98 ft) high and fill a lagoon filled with icebergs. Some icebergs appear natural due to volcanic ash from ancient eruptions that partially covers them.
Icebergs that have broken off from the edge of the glacier move towards the mouth of the river and are fixed on the bottom. The movement of icebergs depends on tidal currents as well as wind. However, they begin to float like icebergs when they are small enough to drift towards the sea. These icebergs have two shades: milky white and bright blue, the color of which depends on the air inside the ice and is a play of light and ice crystals.
