A wintry work of art by nature- a shoreline ice shove on the IJsselmeer, view from the Zuiderdijk, Schellinkhout, North Holland, The Netherlands.


An ice shove, ice surge, ice heave, ivu, or shoreline ice pileup is a surge of ice from an ocean or large lake onto the shore. Ice shoves are caused by water currents, strong winds, or temperature differences pushing ice onto the shore.
