  • 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.

  • Regelation: Why Does Ice Melt Under Pressure?
    Regelation: why does ice melt under pressure? Phase-boundary reversible dispersivity and hydrogen-bond extraordinary recoverability Chang Q Sun [email protected] Nanyang Technological University, Singapore Unlike other unusual materials whose bonds contract under compression, the O:H nonbond undergoes contraction and the H-O bond elongation towards O:H and H-O length symmetry in water and ice. The energy drop of the H-O bond dictates the melting point Tm depression of ice. Once the pressure is relieved, the O:H-O bond fully recovers its initial state, resulting in Regelation.

Powsta´nców Wielkopolskich 5, 61-895 Pozna´n,Poland; [email protected] * Correspondence: ludmila.fi[email protected]; Tel.: +48-914-494-005 Abstract: The problem of freshwater deficit in the last decade has progressed, not only in Africa or Asia, but also in European countries. One of the possible solutions is to obtain freshwater from drifting icebergs. The towing of large icebergs is the topic analyzed in various freshwater supply projects conducted in different zone-specific regions of the world. These projects show general effects of iceberg transport efficiency but do not present a detailed methodology for the calculation of their mass losses. The aim of this article is to develop the methodology to calculate the mass losses of icebergs transported on a selected route. A multi-agent simulation was used, and the numerical model to estimate the melting rate of the iceberg during its energy-efficient towing was developed. Moreover, the effect of towing speed on the iceberg’s mass loss was determined. It was stated that the maximum use of ocean currents, despite longer route and increased transport time, allows for energy-efficient transport of the iceberg. The optimal towing speed of the iceberg on the selected route was recommended at the range of 0.4–1 m/s.

  • Ice Mitigation Measures Used During the Construction of the Keeyask Generating Station After the Failure of the Ice Boom
    CGU HS Committee on River Ice Processes and the Environment 19th Workshop on the Hydraulics of Ice Covered Rivers Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada, July 9-12, 2017. Ice Mitigation Measures Used During the Construction of the Keeyask Generating Station after the Failure of the Ice Boom Michael Morris, P.Eng , Jarrod Malenchak, P.Eng. Manitoba Hydro, 360 Portage Ave, Winnipeg, MB R3C 0G8 [email protected]; [email protected] An ice boom was installed upstream of Gull Rapids on the Nelson River in northern Manitoba to minimize the volume of ice that could be transported and deposited at the Keeyask Generating Station construction site. With lower expected ice volumes associated with the ice boom, the expected water level staging at the construction site was significantly reduced, allowing for the construction of lower cofferdam crests. After the ice boom failed, water levels began to rise, resulting in the imminent danger of the cofferdams overtopping and a significant risk of damages and costly schedule delays. This paper describes the mitigation measures that were used to reduce the risk of overtopping the cofferdams. The mitigation measures employed can be classified as structural (cofferdam top-up, groin extensions), operational (lowering of water level in downstream reservoir) and on-ice measures (cutting upstream border ice to form an ice bridge). 1. Introduction Manitoba Hydro and four Cree Nations known collectively as the partner First Nations: Tataskweyak Cree Nation and War Lake First Nation (working together as the Cree Nation Partners); Fox Lake Cree Nation and York Factory First Nation have formed the Keeyask Hydropower Limited Partnership (KHLP) to design, construct and operate the Keeyask Generating Station.

In the 1890's the Focono iiountains, with a never-failing supply of clean water, became an important source of ice for Philadelphia, New York and the cities of I\.'ew Jersey. The rail- roads that were built to carry coal from Kortheastern Pennsylvania provided transportation for the ice. Consequently, a large industry grew up in Konroe County to karvest the ice and dis- tribu~teit to the cities. In 1901, a ha.rvest of 500,000 tons was expected in the Poconos. In 1911, 1,500,000 tons were harvested in the Pocono Xountains and vicinity..1 Besides this great industry, local men harvested ice on snall~rponds near Stroudsburg,- 3ast Stroudsburg and Cresco to be sold locally.
