There is are two separate entries for "Ice Keel" and "Keel"
Ice Keel
from the point of view of the submariner, a downward-projecting ridge on the underside of the ice canopy; the counterpart of a ridge; ice keels may extend as much as 50 meters (55 yards) below sea level.
Keel
the part of a ridge below the ocean surface; wind, ocean currents, and other forces can push sea ice into piles that rise and form small mountains below the level sea ice surface.
These definitions should be the same. I suggest having a single definition assigned to "Keel". "Ice Keel" can "redirect" to "Keel"
Keels are not only defined from the submariners point of view.
The counterpart of the Keel is a Sail.
I don't see the point of mentioning small mountains. It could be misleading and ridge seems a common enough term.
Suggest
"the part of a sea ice pressure ridge that extents below the sea ice cover. Ice keels can extend up to 50 m below sea level."
