It might be adequate to write that…

An iceberg or ice mountain is a large piece of freshwater ice that has broken off a glacier or an ice shelf and is floating freely in open water.

Melting (also known as fusion) is a physical process that results in the phase transition of a substance from a solid to a liquid.

A glacial period (alternatively glacial or glaciation) is an interval of time (thousands of years) within an ice age that is marked by colder temperatures and glacier advances.

A pond is a body of standing water, either natural or artificial, that is usually smaller than a lake.

Skaftafell ( [listen] ) is a preservation area in Öræfi, southeast Iceland. It used to be a manor farm and a national park, but has been a part of Vatnajökull National Park since its establishment in 2008.
