  • Rapid Access Ice Drill: a New Tool for Exploration of the Deep Antarctic Ice Sheets and Subglacial Geology

Rapid Access Ice Drill: a new tool for exploration of the deep Antarctic ice sheets and subglacial geology JOHN W. GOODGE,1 JEFFREY P. SEVERINGHAUS2 1Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Minnesota, Duluth, MN 55812, USA 2Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093, USA Correspondence: John W. Goodge <[email protected]> ABSTRACT. A new Rapid Access Ice Drill (RAID) will penetrate the Antarctic ice sheets in order to create borehole observatories and take cores in deep ice, the glacial bed and bedrock below. RAID is a mobile drilling system to make multiple long, narrow boreholes in a single field season in Antarctica. RAID is based on a mineral exploration-type rotary rock-coring system using threaded drill pipe to cut through ice using reverse circulation of a non-freezing fluid for pressure-compensation, maintenance of temperature and removal of ice cuttings. Near the bottom of the ice sheet, a wireline latching assem- bly will enable rapid coring of ice, the glacial bed and bedrock below. Once complete, boreholes will be kept open with fluid, capped and available for future down-hole measurement of temperature gradient, heat flow, ice chronology and ice deformation. RAID is designed to penetrate up to 3300 m of ice and take cores in <200 hours, allowing completion of a borehole and coring in ∼10 d at each site.

The history of ice harvesting, the ice industry, refrigeration, and making ice cream Kathi Elkins 7-29-19 OLLI: Summer 2019 Ice Storage and Ice Houses: 1780 BC --- ice house in northern Mesopotamian 1100 BC --- evidence of ice pits in China By 400 BC --- Persian engineers had mastered techniques of constructing yakhchāl to store ice harvested from nearby mountains. 300 BC --- Alexander the Great (snow pits to hold snow and ice) 200s AD --- Romans (snow shops) Cold springs, root cellars Ice Houses: Yakhchāl (this one at Yazd, Iran) is a Persian ice pit or a type of evaporative cooler. Above ground, the structure had a domed shape, but had a subterranean storage space. It was often used to store ice and food. The subterranean space coupled with the thick heat-resistant construction material insulated the storage space all year. Ice Houses: Ice houses in England/UK. Ice Houses: Croome's thatched ice house, Worcestershire, UK Ice Houses: Botany Bay Icehouse, Edisto Island, SC Ice Houses: Ice house designs usually began as an underground egg-shaped cellar. This ice house, dating from 1780s and designed by architect John Nash, was discovered in 2018 buried under London streets. In 1822, following a very mild winter, William Leftwich chartered a vessel to Norway to collect 300 tons of ice harvested from crystal-clear frozen lakes. Previous imports had been lost at sea, or melted while baffled customs officials dithered over how to tax such unique cargo. John Nash designed the Royal Pavilion at Brighton, as well as Buckingham Palace.

  • It's a Cool Story!
    © 2000 by The American Society of Mechanical Engineers It's a Cool Story! Refrigeration and air conditioning in the 20th century By Bernard Nagengast One hundred years ago, folks suffered and sometimes died from a failure to mitigate heat. Though welcome in winter, heat could and did destroy the human race's food and their productive spirit. Sickness from improperly preserved food in summer was more deadly as the stricken suffered in hot, humid hospital rooms. The healthy suffered, too, from summer doldrums. Offices, their furniture sticky, saw worker creativity and productivity drop as temperatures--and tempers--soared. Heat waves brought heatstroke in crowded cities. Folks who could flee the South every summer did so, while the general trend in permanent southern U.S. population was down. Why stay there? Why move there? Even Washington, D.C., all but shut down in summer. That's the way it was before mechanical engineers perfected two of the 20th century's technical marvels—domestic refrigeration and comfort air conditioning. This story is one of alchemy—not lead into gold, but fantasy into necessity. From Ice House to Ice Cube Last year, more than 1,000 people were asked which appliance would be the hardest to live without. The answer: their refrigerator. Modern life is unthinkable without supermarket fresh food, available any time of the year, purchased at one's convenience an hour, week, or month before the meal is actually eaten. Our forefathers lived differently. Certain foods were unavailable in some seasons. Most folks had no means of keeping perishable food cold in summer.

  • The Story of the Knickerbocker Ice Company and Rockland Lake an I
    Knickerbocker Ice Festival at Rockland Lake Winter’s Bounty: the Story of the Knickerbocker Ice Company and Rockland Lake An introduction to a great moment in Rockland’s story Written by Gretchen Weerheim Before the time of refrigerators… Imagine it’s July. It’s very hot outside, and you have a real craving for ice cream and a freezing cold glass of lemonade. You sit and think about how good these would taste and how much cooler you would feel if you could slurp these down. But these two treats would only remain a dream, because there is no ice to cool the lemonade or freeze the cream. Why? The year is 1834, and there are no refrigerators or freezers. Actually, ice was available, but only in the winter months when ice froze in lakes. That didn’t help you very much in July, when you wanted to cool off and dive into a dish of chocolate ice cream. It seemed unfair, somehow. There had to be a way to save a piece of winter for summer. A few imaginative gentlemen figured out a way to do just that, using ice from Rockland Lake and started the Knickerbocker Ice Company. Electricity was not yet harnessed to produce the power that would eventually enable refrigeration. That would not be possible for some years to come. However, ice could be preserved, if one was careful enough, and could be made to last until the following winter. Starting in 1835, developing the way to preserve ice began in earnest. Between 1835 and 1865, methods improved so greatly to harvest ice from Rockland Lake that not only was it possible to enjoy ice cream in July here in Rockland County, but throughout the region.

  • Memorial City Expands North of I 10 with Kirby Ice House, Torchy's
    Memorial City expands north of I 10 with IN THE NEWS Kirby Ice House, Torchy’s Tacos, Mia’s Table BY LAURA GILLESPIE APR 2, 2019, 9:04AM METRONATIONAL 945 BUNKER HILL SUITE 400 HOUSTON, TEXAS 77024 MAIN 713.973.6400 LEASING 713.984.1001 Houston-based real estate development company MetroNational is expanding Memorial City north of Interstate 10 with a mixed-use development on an 18-acre tract at the corner of Gessner and the Katy Freeway, according to a press release. The new development will feature a number of new restaurant locations, notably a second location for Kirby Ice House. Mia’s Table, which already has three locations in Upper Kirby, Shenandoah and Webster, will see its fourth location in the new development, and the explosively popular Austin-based Torchy’s Tacos will open its 15th location there. Kirby Ice House, a patio bar, will span 7,000 square feet and will be designed by Energy Architecture, per the release. It will serve beer, cocktails and wine. With a groundbreaking slated for this summer, it is expected to open in spring 2020. The first Kirby Ice House opened in 2016 at 3333 Eastside St. Mia’s Table — one of Houston restaurateur Johnny Carrabba’s concepts — sells burgers, barbecue and “country sides,” as well as malts and shakes. It will be 5,830 square feet, while Torchy’s Tacos will be 4,550 square feet. Both the restaurants will share a 7,000-square-foot courtyard. The two will break ground this spring and have an expected opening of spring 2020, per the release.
