Debris The Ice 1 1

Ice-rafted debris (IRD) is sediment of any grain size that has been transported by floating ice and released subsequently into an aqueous environment; the ice acts as a raft, providing buoyancy to any debris included within it or on its surface. Although IRD is often assumed to be transported by icebergs, the ice raft can be in the form of either icebergs, derived from glaciers and ice sheets, or from sea ice formed by the freezing of sea water. IRD is usually deposited by icebergs and sea ice floating in marine waters, but icebergs, lake and river ice can also transport debris and release it subsequently into lakes.
