科学家指出，新西兰是海域有数百座冰山正逐渐朝新西兰靠近，担心船只安全控因此受到威胁，新西兰政府为此已在23日发布沿海航行警

报。

海洋学家指出，冰山漂流至新西兰沿海地区的情况十分罕见，但随着气候变迁和温室效应，未来可能还会有更多冰山融化漂流。

科学家指出，这些冰山正以每小时1.25公里的速度，朝新西兰本岛漂流过去，依融冰时间与速度计算后发现，这些冰山最后可能完整无缺的漂到新西兰本岛。

澳大利亚南极署获得的卫星图像显示，这些冰山已途径奥克兰群岛，朝东北部分450公里外的新西兰南岛漂去。据了解，这100多座冰上结合在一起，一些长度达300米，估计可能还有数以百计的冰山正漂向同个方向。

该署冰河学家尼尔说，这些冰山相信是从南极洲的巨大浮冰分裂出来的。他说这些冰山离开南极洲时，相信是来自一块面积达30平方公里的巨大浮冰，它们在南极地区漂流了一段时间。如今，较大的冰山分解形成较小的冰山。

科学家11月初在观察海豹生态时也曾意外在南极与新西兰之间的麦考利岛附近海域发现一座水面高度50公尺，水下深度350公尺，体积相当于泰坦尼克的2倍的冰山。
