tip of the iceberg

 

Science

 

A massive body of floating ice that has broken away from a glacier or ice field. Most of an iceberg lies underwater, but because ice is not as dense as water, about one ninth of it remains above the surface.

 

(The American Heritage® Science Dictionary)

 

Culture

 

Only a hint or suggestion of a much larger or more complex issue or problem. This phrase alludes to the fact that the bulk of a floating iceberg is concealed beneath the water, leaving only a small portion, its tip, visible above.
