Impurities and their Distribution in Temperate Glacier Ice

Rheology of glacier ice.

A new method for calculating the stress field in bounded ice shelves is used to compare strain rate and deviatoric stress on the Ross Ice Shelf, Antarctica. The analysis shows that strain rate (per second) increases as the third power of deviatoric stress (in newtons per square meter), with a constant of proportionality equal to 2.3 x 10(-25).

Distribution of Impurities Concentration in Nucleate Boiling

The development of the mathematical model of mass transfer and diffusion process can determine the behavior of dissolved impurities in the flow boiling within viscous sublayer. Application of a new model to calculate the distribution of dissolved impuritiesconcentration within viscous sublayer and estimation of its thickness based on heat conduction layer and evaporation layer (macro-microlayer...

Snow Avalanches, Ice Avalanches and Glacier Surges

Grey Tienshan Urumqi Glacier No.1 and light-absorbing impurities

The Tienshan Urumqi Glacier No.1 (TUG1) usually shows "grey" surfaces in summers. Besides known regional warming, what should be responsible for largely reducing its surface albedo and making it look "grey"? A field campaign was conducted on the TUG1 on a selected cloud-free day of 2013 after a snow fall at night. Fresh and aged snow samples were collected in the field, and snow densities, grai...
