6 iceberg & sea-ice bulletins in force
Iceberg limits and reported bergs — mostly the North American Ice Service (International Ice Patrol) bulletins in the North Atlantic.
What the archive shows
The available iceberg & sea-ice bulletins archive contains 11,479 messages across 28 issue years, from 1998 to 2026. The year links below provide the source and sea-area breakdowns for each period.
The current list includes messages issued from 2026-06-30 to 2026-09-25. A warning can remain in force for an extended operation, so this list is not a list of new incidents.
6 recorded messages form a small sample; the source in the current list breakdown should be read as individual records rather than a pattern.
The NGA archive froze in 2024-05; live collection began 2026-08-17. Counts near that gap are incomplete. Separate messages may describe updates to the same activity.
