Geography
The Rink Glacier is the largest glacier on the west coast of Greenland. Its terminus is in the Karrat Fjord, Nordost Bay, Baffin Bay, North Atlantic Ocean.

It drains an area of 30,182 km2 of the Greenland Ice Sheet with a flux (quantity of ice moved from the land to the sea) of 12.1 km3 per year, as measured for 1996. As reported by Anker Weidick and Ole Bennike in 2007, it is ranked second or third in iceberg production in western Greenland. It is also the swiftest moving and highest surface ice in the world.
