    4 —————————— The Peconic Bay Shopper • • DECEMBER 2016 —————————— Preserving Local History The vintage ice boats of Orient include the following: “Platter” — Original name “Git-There”, the “Platter” (pictured below) was built about 1880 by Will Brown, a son of Orient’s famous whaler, Peter Brown. This is a diamond stay boat, quite different from the other vintage ice boats. The boat was owned by Edward King for many years and then by his daughter, Fran Demerest who sold it to Bob Sorensen. “Red Bird” — The “Red Bird”, built in approximately 1850 by Ed King’s father, Charles Henry King. The photo on the right, taken in 1968, shows Ed King at 79 years old with his favorite ice boat. Ed was probably the most avid ice boater in Orient ice boating history, at one time owning four of Orient’s vintage ice boats that included, the “Platter”, the “Eagle”, and the “Effie”. The photo on the facing page, taken in 1917, shows the “Red Bird” ice boat in Orient Harbor in a nicely controlled hike with Ed King at the helm. You may be able to see the ice plume off the stern runner. “Rival” — Built about 1880. One of the fastest boats in the Orient fleet.

  • Let's Crank Some Ice Cream
    Let’s Crank Some Ice Cream! 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.

Daisy at Home Recipe for a Small Glacier Instructions 1. Crumble up the cookies and put them in the bowl. This represents dirt and rocks that will become glacial till. 2. Put two big scoops of the ice cream on top of the crumbled cookies. Glaciers begin as clean snow and ice, but they pick up dirt and rocks from the ground as they travel. So, the ice cream with its swirls represents this “dirty” glacier! 3. Slide the plastic sandwich bag over your hand. Then, slowly push down or “smoosh” the ice cream so it oozes! What do you notice? What happens to the cookie crumbles? A glacier moves in a similar way. As more snow falls on it, the added weight causes the glacier to “ooze” or “flow,” pushing the dirt in all directions. 4. To see how glaciers flow, heat up your light-colored syrup and pour it over the ice cream.

ETH No. 25820 Gas hydrates as a functional foaming agent for viscous food matrices A dissertation submitted to attain the degree of DOCTOR OF SCIENCES of ETH ZURICH (Dr. sc. ETH Zurich) presented by Zuzana Šedivá MSc in Food Science ETH Zurich born 26th May 1987 citizen of Czech Republic accepted on the recommendation of Prof. Dr. E. J. Windhab, Examiner Dr. Martin Leser, Co-Examiner Dr. Vincent Meunier, Co-Examiner 2019 Summary A novel technology for foaming viscous slurries was designed. The process involved a crystalline gas hydrate dispersion as a functional ingredient standing in the core of the technology. Gas hydrates, also known as clathrate hydrates, are solid inclusion compounds, in which gas molecules are physically entrapped in a network of cavities made up of water molecules held together by hydrogen bonds (Marinhas et al., 2007). Gas hydrates exist at moderate pressures and low temperatures and possess a high volumetric gas storage capacity. The innovative idea of replacing highly energetically demanding foaming of viscous slurries using pure gas with the gas hydrate technology emerges in the current study. Introducing a gas as a slurry in its solid clathrate form into another viscous product stream reduces the energy input otherwise needed in powerful mixing devices.

    ESSENTIALS OF METEOROLOGY (7th ed.) GLOSSARY Chapter 1 Aerosols Tiny suspended solid particles (dust, smoke, etc.) or liquid droplets that enter the atmosphere from either natural or human (anthropogenic) sources, such as the burning of fossil fuels. Sulfur-containing fossil fuels, such as coal, produce sulfate aerosols. Air density The ratio of the mass of a substance to the volume occupied by it. Air density is usually expressed as g/cm3 or kg/m3. Also See Density. Air pressure The pressure exerted by the mass of air above a given point, usually expressed in millibars (mb), inches of (atmospheric mercury (Hg) or in hectopascals (hPa). pressure) Atmosphere The envelope of gases that surround a planet and are held to it by the planet's gravitational attraction. The earth's atmosphere is mainly nitrogen and oxygen. Carbon dioxide (CO2) A colorless, odorless gas whose concentration is about 0.039 percent (390 ppm) in a volume of air near sea level. It is a selective absorber of infrared radiation and, consequently, it is important in the earth's atmospheric greenhouse effect. Solid CO2 is called dry ice.

  • Science Lesson Plan
    How Do Glaciers Scratch And Move Rocks? Purpose: Students will model the action of a rock-filled glacier with ice cubes and learn how glaciers can make scratches in Earths surface. Text: McGraw Hill, Pg. 175 Explore Activity McGraw Hill Science Journal, Pg. 75 Resources: I have added an additional experiment that you can do in your classroom after lab to reinforce the concepts being taught this week. Learning Outcomes: Students will discuss and know how glaciers scratch and move rocks. (Homeroom Teacher) Bridge-in: Share student’s hypothesis with class: How can a block of ice help shape the Earth’s surface? Prior Knowledge: How are icebergs formed? Do you think that a glacier is able to make scratches in the Earth’s surface? If YES, then HOW? If NO, then WHY? Input from you: Review what a prediction is. What is meant by using, the word, variable(s) in an experiment? What is an observation? What do I mean when I use the term inference? (Science Facilitator) Materials: Science Notebook Science Journal Pg. 75 Paper towels Clean ice cubes Ice cubes made with sand Aluminum foil Wood scraps, large enough to scrape ice cubes against. Guided Procedure: Predict: Which ice cube do you think is more like a real glacier? Record your prediction and reasons in your journal. Using Variables: Think about how you could use the materials to test your ideas. Which ice cube will scratch a surface? Record your observations for each ice cube. Observation: Which cube will leave “rocks” behind? Place the ice cubes on a folded paper towel.

  • RECIPE for MAKING LIQUID NITROGEN ICE CREAM (Serves About 18-20 Students)
    RECIPE FOR MAKING LIQUID NITROGEN ICE CREAM (serves about 18-20 students) NOTE: This is NOT a regular ChemDemo activity but rather a “treat” to go along with a regular ChemDemo 1. Add 1 quart Half and Half and 1 quart Heavy Whipping Cream into a large plastic or glass salad or punch bowl. 2. Add ¾ to 1 cup of granulated sugar (1 cup is a little on the sweet side). 3. 4-5 teaspoons of vanilla. 4. Optional: 1 pound of fresh fruit or preserves (not jelly). Strawberry or peach works best. If using fresh fruit, cut into small pieces. Chocolate syrup (8 oz) works well to make chocolate ice cream. If using chocolate syrup use less sugar (½ to ¾ cup). 5. Stir the mix for 2-3 minutes to dissolve the sugar. 6. Add about 2-3 liters of liquid nitrogen slowly and in small portions into the mix and stir with a wooden spoon. Pour a little at a time and stir; then continue adding small amounts of liquid nitrogen until you have the desired consistency. One person should be stirring while another gradually pours in the LN2. Another person may be necessary to hold the container when it starts getting thick. 7. Allow any excess liquid nitrogen to boil off. 8. Serve to your audience. Enough for 20 students (half a cup each). 9. Wash equipment and enjoy. SAFETY NOTE: LN2 is extremely cold (-196°C, -321°F, 77 K)!! Spilling it on you can cause serious frost- bite burns! Pouring some on unprotected skin is actually less dangerous than on clothing in contact with skin.

  • East Antarctic Sea Ice in Spring: Spectral Albedo of Snow, Nilas, Frost Flowers and Slush, and Light-Absorbing Impurities in Snow
    Annals of Glaciology 56(69) 2015 doi: 10.3189/2015AoG69A574 53 East Antarctic sea ice in spring: spectral albedo of snow, nilas, frost flowers and slush, and light-absorbing impurities in snow Maria C. ZATKO, Stephen G. WARREN Department of Atmospheric Sciences, University of Washington, Seattle, WA, USA E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Spectral albedos of open water, nilas, nilas with frost flowers, slush, and first-year ice with both thin and thick snow cover were measured in the East Antarctic sea-ice zone during the Sea Ice Physics and Ecosystems eXperiment II (SIPEX II) from September to November 2012, near 658 S, 1208 E. Albedo was measured across the ultraviolet (UV), visible and near-infrared (nIR) wavelengths, augmenting a dataset from prior Antarctic expeditions with spectral coverage extended to longer wavelengths, and with measurement of slush and frost flowers, which had not been encountered on the prior expeditions. At visible and UV wavelengths, the albedo depends on the thickness of snow or ice; in the nIR the albedo is determined by the specific surface area. The growth of frost flowers causes the nilas albedo to increase by 0.2±0.3 in the UV and visible wavelengths. The spectral albedos are integrated over wavelength to obtain broadband albedos for wavelength bands commonly used in climate models. The albedo spectrum for deep snow on first-year sea ice shows no evidence of light- absorbing particulate impurities (LAI), such as black carbon (BC) or organics, which is consistent with the extremely small quantities of LAI found by filtering snow meltwater.
