attribute NC_GLOBAL summary String In the period between the austral summers of 1982/83 to 1997/98, iceberg observations were recorded by most research vessels cruising Antarctic waters, under an international programme for systematic collection of Antarctic iceberg data initiated by The Norwegian Polar Institute (NPI) in 1981 with the endorsement of the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR). The resulting database contains records of 320 493 iceberg positions from 26 601 individual observations. Of these, 259 479 icebergs have been classified by size into five different length categories: 10-50, 50-200, 200-500, 500-1000 and >1000 m. The database also includes 8061 additional iceberg observations collected by the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions ships from 1984 (AAD), operating in the 50-150° E longitude sector. Some of these have been classified by slightly different size categories.
