Methane oxidation at the water-ice interface of an ice-covered lake
Lakes are important components of the global methane (CH4) cycle. In seasonally ice-covered lakes, CH4 transported by ebullition (bubbling) from anoxic sediments gets trapped at the water-ice interface. If not oxidized by methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB), this can potentially lead to high episodic CH4 emissions at icemelt. To understand the fate of CH4 trapped below ice, we measured depth-distr...
متن کاملProduction of Ice Nucleation Deficient (Ice-) Mutants of the Epiphytic Strains of Erwinia herbicola
To mutate the Ice Nucleation Active (INA) gene in Erwinia herbicola strains, Tn-5 transposon carried by Psup2021 plasmid was used. This plasmid was transferred to the bacterial cells by electroporation. Electrotransformation was carried out for 2.5 ms at 1800 v and 1 mm distance between the electrodes. Polymerase chain reaction was used for determination of presence or loss of INA gene, using a...
متن کاملHydroxyl radical reactivity at the air-ice interface
Hydroxyl radicals are important oxidants in the atmosphere and in natural waters. They are also expected to be important in snow and ice, but their reactivity has not been widely studied in frozen aqueous solution. We have developed a spectroscopic probe to monitor the formation and reactions of hydroxyl radicals in situ. Hydroxyl radicals are produced in aqueous solution via the photolysis of ...
متن کاملIce internal friction: standard theoretical perspectives on friction codified, adapted for the unusual rheology of ice, and unified
Sea ice contains flaws including frictional contacts. We aim to describe quantitatively the mechanics of those contacts, providing local physics for geophysical models. With a focus on the internal friction of ice, we review standard micro-mechanical models of friction. The solid’s deformation under normal load may be ductile or elastic. The shear failure of the contact may be by ductile flow, ...
متن کاملA review on the physics of ice surface friction and the development of ice
Our walking and running movement patterns require friction between shoes and ground. The surface of ice is characterized by low friction in several naturally occurring conditions, and compromises our typical locomotion pattern. Ice skates take advantage of this slippery nature of ice; the first ice skates were made more than 4,000 years ago, and afforded the development of a very efficient form...
