"An iceberg larger than the state of Delaware peeled off from the Ronne Ice Shelf near Berkner Island in west Antarctica last month, sending a German research facility adrift into the Weddell Sea" from: Colhoun, Alexander (November 8, 1998). "Giant Berg Breaks Free, Sends Station Afloat" (PDF). Antarctic Sun. United States Antarctic Program at McMurdo Station, Antarctica. p. 5.

Thanks buidhe. I've since created an article for Filchner Station. I've boldlinked this in the hook above. Would you mind reviewing this as a second article? Many thanks - Dumelow (talk) 09:11, 5 November 2020 (UTC)
