Ice Control
In 1938 a survey was conducted by the ARBA Committee on Ice Control on the different methods used in the treatment of icy pavements by the several states in the snow belt. Considerable information was obtained, and the findings were reported to the Association. During the past year a follow-up study has been made with the idea of presenting treating methods which could be called standard practi...
متن کاملAlgal ice-binding proteins change the structure of sea ice.
Krembs et al. (1) reported that extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) produced by a sea ice diatom, Melosira, created convoluted ice-pore morphologies in sea ice, potentially increasing its habitability and primary productivity. The activity was reduced by heat treatment and glycosidase treatments, suggesting that a glycoprotein was involved. Based on our previous work (2), it is very likely...
متن کاملModelling Sea Ice Growth
The freezing of water to ice is a classic problem in applied mathematics, involving the solution of a diffusion equation with a moving boundary. However, when the water is salty, the transport of salt rejected by ice introduces some interesting twists to the tale. A number of analytic models for the freezing of water are briefly reviewed, ranging from the famous work by Neumann and Stefan in th...
متن کاملInteraction of ice binding proteins with ice, water and ions.
Ice binding proteins (IBPs) are produced by various cold-adapted organisms to protect their body tissues against freeze damage. First discovered in Antarctic fish living in shallow waters, IBPs were later found in insects, microorganisms, and plants. Despite great structural diversity, all IBPs adhere to growing ice crystals, which is essential for their extensive repertoire of biological funct...
متن کاملGrowth and Evaporation of Ice and Nitric Acid/Ice
Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) surface studies have been used to probe the microphysical properties of nitric acid trihydrate (NAT) and ice films representative of type I and II polar stratospheric louds (PSCs), respectively. The infrared spectra of NAT and nitric acid monohydrate (NAM) are obtained by dosing calibrated 3:1 and 1:1 mixtures of water and nitric acid onto a support at -90øC. T...
