Producing desired ice faces.
The ability to prepare single-crystal faces has become central to developing and testing models for chemistry at interfaces, spectacularly demonstrated by heterogeneous catalysis and nanoscience. This ability has been hampered for hexagonal ice, Ih--a fundamental hydrogen-bonded surface--due to two characteristics of ice: ice does not readily cleave along a crystal lattice plane and properties ...
متن کاملVanishing Polar Ice Sheets
Global temperatures have increased by 0.8◦C since instrumental records began, and the last decade has been the warmest. This warming has been closely linked to increasing greenhouse gas concentrations due to human activities. Arctic warming is leading to thinning and disappearance of sea ice on the Arctic Ocean and the increased melting of the Greenland ice sheet. In the last decade the Antarct...
متن کاملDynamic Recrystallization of Ice in Polar Ice Sheets
The deformation and recrystallization mechanisms which control the viscoplasticity of ice from polar ice sheets have been investigated. The high plastic anisotropy of ice crystals is responsible for the development of a non uniform internal stress field within the polycrystal. Strain-shadows produced by sub-grain are observed in polarized light when the rotation recrystallization regime is domi...
متن کاملLaboratory Studies of Polar Ice Processes
OBJECTIVES Our objectives are to measure in the laboratory the way in which waves and sea ice interact, and to compare the results with existing theoretical models, and field and satellite observations. Specifically, we are using laboratory results to determine the role of ocean swell and wind-waves in the growth of sea ice in open water regions such as polynyas, and satellite observations to h...
