Rink Glacier (Danish translation: "Rink Isbrae") (Greenlandic: Kangilliup Sermia) (), is a large glacier located on the west coast of Greenland. It drains an area of 30,182 km2 (11,653 sq mi) of the Greenland Ice Sheet with a flux (quantity of ice moved from the land to the sea) of 12.1 km3 (2.9 cu mi) per year, as measured for 1996.[1] As reported by Anker Weidick and Ole Bennike in 2007, it is ranked second or third in iceberg production in western Greenland.[2] It is also the swiftest moving and highest surface ice in the world.[3]
The glacier is named in honor of Hinrich Johannes Rink, Danish geologist and Greenlandic researcher.
