    How the Ice Age Shaped Indiana Jerry Wilson Published by Wilstar Media, www.wilstar.com Indianapolis, Indiana 1 Previiously published as The Topography of Indiana: Ice Age Legacy, © 1988 by Jerry Wilson. Second Edition Copyright © 2008 by Jerry Wilson ALL RIGHTS RESERVED 2 For Aaron and Shana and In Memory of Donna 3 Introduction During the time that I have been a science teacher I have tried to enlist in my students the desire to understand and the ability to reason. Logical reasoning is the surest way to overcome the unknown. The best aid to reasoning effectively is having the knowledge and an understanding of the things that have previ- ously been determined or discovered by others. Having an understanding of the reasons things are the way they are and how they got that way can help an individual to utilize his or her resources more effectively. I want my students to realize that changes that have taken place on the earth in the past have had an effect on them. Why are some towns in Indiana subject to flooding, whereas others are not? Why are cemeteries built on old beach fronts in Northwest Indiana? Why would it be easier to dig a basement in Valparaiso than in Bloomington? These things are a direct result of the glaciers that advanced southward over Indiana during the last Ice Age. The history of the land upon which we live is fascinating. Why are there large granite boulders nested in some of the fields of northern Indiana since Indiana has no granite bedrock? They are known as glacial erratics, or dropstones, and were formed in Canada or the upper Midwest hundreds of millions of years ago.

Occurrence of glaciers 8. Present-day glacierization of the Arctic Glossary Bibliography Biographical Sketch Summary There exist ten crystal variants of ice and one amorphous form in Nature, however only one form ice-1 is distributed on the Earth. Ten other ice variants steadily exist only under a certain combinations of pressure, specific volume and temperature of medium, and those are not typical for our planet. The ice density is less than that of water by 9%, and owing to this water reservoirs are never totally frozen., Thus life is sustained in them during the winter time. As a rule, ice is much cleaner than water, and specific gas-ice compounds called as crystalline hydrates are found in ice. Among the different spheres surrounding our globe there are cryosphere (sphere of the cold), glaciosphere (sphere of snow and ice) and chionosphere (that part of the troposphere where the annual amount of solid precipitation exceeds their losses). The chionosphere envelopes the Earth with a shell 3 to 5 km in thickness. In the present epoch, snow and ice cover 14.2% of the planet’s surface and more than half of the land surface.

  • Searching for Crystal-Ice Domains in Amorphous Ices
    PHYSICAL REVIEW MATERIALS 2, 075601 (2018) Searching for crystal-ice domains in amorphous ices Fausto Martelli,1,2,* Nicolas Giovambattista,3,4 Salvatore Torquato,2 and Roberto Car2 1IBM Research, Hartree Centre, Daresbury WA4 4AD, United Kingdom 2Department of Chemistry, Princeton University, Princeton, New Jersey 08544, USA 3Department of Physics, Brooklyn College of the City University of New York, Brooklyn, New York 11210, USA 4The Graduate Center of the City University of New York, New York, New York 10016, USA (Received 7 May 2018; published 2 July 2018) Weemploy classical molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the molecular-level structure of water during the isothermal compression of hexagonal ice (Ih) and low-density amorphous (LDA) ice at low temperatures. In both cases, the system transforms to high-density amorphous ice (HDA) via a first-order-like phase transition. We employ a sensitive local order metric (LOM) [F. Martelli et al., Phys. Rev. B 97, 064105 (2018)] that can discriminate among different crystalline and noncrystalline ice structures and is based on the positions of the oxygen atoms in the first- and/or second-hydration shell. Our results confirm that LDA and HDA are indeed amorphous, i.e., they lack polydispersed ice domains. Interestingly, HDA contains a small number of domains that are reminiscent of the unit cell of ice IV,although the hydrogen-bond network (HBN) of these domains differs from the HBN of ice IV. The presence of ice-IV-like domains provides some support to the hypothesis that HDA could be the result of a detour on the HBN rearrangement along the Ih-to-ice-IV pressure-induced transformation.

  • Mechanical Characterization Via Full Atomistic Simulation: Applications to Nanocrystallized Ice
    Mechanical Characterization via Full Atomistic Simulation: Applications to Nanocrystallized Ice A thesis presented By Arvand M.H. Navabi to The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in the field of Civil Engineering Northeastern University Boston, Massachusetts August, 2016 Submitted to Prof. Steven W. Cranford Acknowledgements I acknowledge generous support from my thesis advisor Dr. Steven W. Cranford whose encouragement and availability was crucial to this thesis and also my parents for allowing me to realize my own potential. The simulations were made possible by LAMMPS open source program. Visualization has been carried out using the VMD visualization package. 3 Abstract This work employs molecular dynamic (MD) approaches to characterize the mechanical properties of nanocrystalline materials via a full atomistic simulation using the ab initio derived ReaxFF potential. Herein, we demonstrate methods to efficiently simulate key mechanical properties (ultimate strength, stiffness, etc.) in a timely and computationally inexpensive manner. As an illustrative example, the work implements the described methodology to perform full atomistic simulation on ice as a material platform, which — due to its complex behavior and phase transitions upon pressure, heat exchange, energy transfer etc. — has long been avoided or it has been unsuccessful to ascertain its mechanical properties from a molecular perspective. This study will in detail explain full atomistic MD methods and the particulars required to correctly simulate crystalline material systems. Tools such as the ReaxFF potential and open-source software package LAMMPS will be described alongside their fundamental theories and suggested input methods to simulate further materials, encompassing both periodic and finite crystalline models.

  • Formation of Clathrate Hydrate from Amorphous Ice During Warming R
    Formation of clathrate hydrate from amorphous ice during warming R. Netsu, T. Ikeda-Fukazawa Department of Applied Chemistry, Meiji University, Japan Water molecules are condensed on dust grains in interstellar molecular clouds and protester nebulae. The water exists as amorphous ice in the cold clouds and is transformed into various structures depending on thermal conditions and compositions with various deposited molecules. Blake et al. [1] proposed the presence of CO2 clathrate hydrate in cometary ice. From the results using the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), they showed the phase transition of vapor deposited amorphous ice including CO2 and CH3OH into type-II clathrate hydrate at around 120 K. Clathrate hydrates are inclusion compounds consisting of water molecules and a variety of guests molecules. Most clathrate hydrates form one of two distinct crystallographic structures, type-I and –II, depending on the sizes and shapes of the guest molecules. The cubic unit cell of type-I clathrate hydrate contains 46 water molecules in a framework of two dodecahedral and six tetrakaidecahedral cages, and that of type-II clathrate hydrate contains 136 water molecules in a framework of 16 dodecahedral and eight hexakaidecahedral cages. The structure of CO2 clathrate hydrate formed under a high pressure condition is type-I [2]. For the hydrate from the vapor deposited amorphous ice [1], the structure is type-II due to the help-gasses effect of CH3OH. For the CO2 clathrate hydrate grown epitaxially on a hydrate in low pressure conditions, the structure depends on the structure of the hydrate as the substrate [3].

  • Spectroscopic Signatures of Halogens in Clathrate Hydrate Cages. 1
    13792 J. Phys. Chem. A 2006, 110, 13792-13798 Spectroscopic Signatures of Halogens in Clathrate Hydrate Cages. 1. Bromine Galina Kerenskaya,* Ilya U. Goldschleger, V. Ara Apkarian, and Kenneth C. Janda Department of Chemistry, UniVersity of California IrVine, IrVine, California 92697 ReceiVed: July 17, 2006; In Final Form: October 19, 2006 We report the first UV-vis spectroscopic study of bromine molecules confined in clathrate hydrate cages. Bromine in its natural hydrate occupies 51262 and 51263 lattice cavities. Bromine also can be encapsulated into the larger 51264 cages of a type II hydrate formed mainly from tetrahydrofuran or dichloromethane and water. The visible spectra of the enclathrated halogen molecule retain the spectral envelope of the gas-phase spectra while shifting to the blue. In contrast, spectra of bromine in liquid water or amorphous ice are broadened and significantly more blue-shifted. The absorption bands shift by about 360 cm-1 for bromine in large 51264 cages of type II clathrate, by about 900 cm-1 for bromine in a combination of 51262 and 51263 cages of pure bromine hydrate, and by more than 1700 cm-1 for bromine in liquid water or amorphous ice. The dramatic shift and broadening in water and ice is due to the strong interaction of the water lone-pair orbitals with the halogen σ* orbital. In the clathrate hydrates, the oxygen lone-pair orbitals are all involved in the hydrogen- bonded water lattice and are thus unavailable to interact with the halogen guest molecule. The blue shifts observed in the clathrate hydrate cages are related to the spatial constraints on the halogen excited states by the cage walls.
