Congelation ice - Wikipedia
On seawater, congelation ice is ice that forms on the bottom of an established sea ice cover, usually in the form of platelets which coalesce to form solid ice. [1][2] Only the water freezes to …
Congelation ice | ice formation | Britannica - Encyclopedia Britannica
Congelation ice, with its distinctive columnar crystal texture due to the downward growth of the ice crystals into the water, is very common in Arctic pack ice and fast ice.
congelation ice | National Snow and Ice Data Center
an advanced form of new ice that forms as a stable sheet with a smooth bottom surface.
Science of Sea Ice | National Snow and Ice Data Center
Ice continues growing when crystals grow directly on the bottom of the ice surface. This bottom ice growth is called congelation ice. Congelation ice crystals are long and vertical because …
Structural characteristics of congelation and platelet ice and their ...
Congelation ice growth precedes platelet-ice accretion. Congelation-ice fabrics show frequent moderate to strong alignments, a phenomenon believed to be due to water-current control of …
How does Arctic sea ice form and decay - Wadhams
Once nilas has formed, a quite different growth process occurs, in which water molecules freeze on to the bottom of the existing ice sheet, a process called congelation growth. This growth …
Sea freezes and melts - Finnish Meteorological Institute
When ice forms from the sea water and forms more ice on the bottom of an established ice cover, it is called congelation ice. The congelation ice is dark bluish, glass-like and usually its crystals …

We report on studies of sea-ice texture conducted during a number of expeditions into the Weddell Sea. Sea ice in the Antarctic is dominated by granular ice of frazil origin in floes of all …

congelation ice, probably a consequence of rafting that occurs when ice sheets collide and ride up onto other ice sheets. This adds to the thickness of the ice. As the ice forms, brine is trapped …
