Although scientists said they did not believe it was linked to climate change, it is the first major calving event on the Amery ice shelf since 1963-1964.
Researchers have been studying the ice shelf since the 1960s and currently have instruments on the ice that are measuring the impact of ocean melt and ice flow.
