Experiments on Ice Spikes and a Simple Growth Model
Journal of Glaciology, Vo l. 50, No.170, 2004 Experiments on ice spikes and a simple growth model Lesley HILL,1 Edward LOZOWSKI,1 Russell D. SAMPSON2 1Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AlbertaT6G 2E3, Canada E-mail: [email protected] 2Physical Sciences Department, Eastern Connecticut State University,Willimantic, Connecticut 06226, U.S.A. ABSTRACT. Ice-spike observations in nature have sparked much interest in the scientific and non-scientific communities alike, yet most research performed thus far has been largely qualitative.We have conducted a quantitative, systematic laboratory investi- gation in order to assess theories explaining ice-spike growth and to determine the condi- tions conducive to it.We observed ice-spike growth using time-lapse digital photography, using two water types in two different containers. We observed that ice spikes occurred much more frequently in distilled water than in tap water. Digital images were analyzed to determine the growth rate of the ice spikes.Water temperature was recorded through- out the freezing process, and the cooling rate was used to estimate a bulk heat transfer coefficient. Finally, a simple model, based on mass conservation, was derived and was found to give useful predictions of ice-spike growth rate. INTRODUCTION Nevertheless, little systematic research has been performed to determine, quantitatively, the conditions necessary for Ice spikes have puzzled observers for decades. Published the development of ice spikes, or the details of their growth reports and theories go back to Dorsey (1921) and Bally (Mason and Maybank, 1960; Wascher, 1991; Maeno and (1933). Since then, numerous reported observations have others,1994).The companion paper in this issue (Libbrecht appeared (Bell, 1959; Hayward, 1966; Krauz and others, and Lui, 2004) is one of few attempts to document the 1967;Thain,1985; Loebeck,1986;Whiddet,1986; Nishiyama, growth conditions of ice spikes in the laboratory. -
Safety Manual for Fieldwork in the Arctic 3Nd Edition, January 2018
Safety Manual for Fieldwork in the Arctic 3nd edition, January 2018 Editors: Mette Maribo Høgsbro Morten Rasch Susanne Tang Editorial Committee: Morten Rasch, Department of Geoscience and Natural Resource Management, University of Copenhagen (Chairman) Jørgen Peder Steffensen, Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen Kirsten Christoffersen, Department of Biology, University of Copenhagen Morten Meldgaard, Natural History Museum of Denmark Peter Stougaard, Department of Plants and Environmental Sciences, University of Copenhagen Susanne Tang, Faculty of Science, University of Copenhagen Mette Maribo Høgsbro, Faculty of Science, University of Copenhagen This safety manual is widely based upon information taken more or less directly from safety manuals pro- duced by other institutions, i.e., University Centre in Svalbard (UNIS), Greenland Institute of Natural Re- sources, Aarhus University, the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS) and The East Green- land Ice-core Project (EGRIP) UCPH. However, all information has been quality controlled by University of Copenhagen staff, and any errors that might occur in the manual are therefore the sole responsibility of the University of Copenhagen. Front page picture: Morten Rasch Publisher: Faculty of Science, University of Copenhagen Photo: Morten Rasch Photo: Morten Preface Safety is important for all types of arctic fieldwork. Fieldwork in remote arctic areas with extreme climate and extreme physical settings require close attention to safety. This manual pertains to all arctic fieldwork associated with research projects and tasks commissioned or managed by the Faculty of Science at the University of Copenhagen (SCIENCE). The manual consist of an introductory section including a more general introduction to safety considera- tions of relevance to all arctic fieldwork. -
Archbishop John J. Williams
Record Group I.06.01 John Joseph Williams Papers, 1852-1907 Introduction & Index Archives, Archdiocese of Boston Introduction Biographical Sketch Scope and Content Content List (A-Z) Subject Index Introduction The John Joseph Williams papers held by the Archives of the Archdiocese of Boston span the years 1852-1907. The collection consists of original letters and documents from the year that Williams was assigned to what was to become St. Joseph’s parish in the West End of Boston until his death 55 years later. The papers number approximately 815 items and are contained in 282 folders arranged alphabetically by correspondent in five manuscript boxes. It is probable that the Williams papers were first put into some kind of order in the Archives in the 1930s when Fathers Robert h. Lord, John E. Sexton, and Edward T. Harrington were researching and writing their History of the Archdiocese of Boston, 1604-1943. At this time the original manuscripts held by the Archdiocese were placed individually in folders and arranged chronologically in file cabinets. One cabinet contained original material and another held typescripts, photostats, and other copies of documents held by other Archives that were gathered as part of the research effort. The outside of each folder noted the author and the recipient of the letter. In addition, several letters were sound in another section of the Archives. It is apparent that these letters were placed in the Archives after Lord, Sexton, and Harrington had completed their initial arrangement of manuscripts relating to the history of the Archdiocese of Boston. In preparing this collection of the original Williams material, a calendar was produced. -

I focus specifically on newcomer undocumented migrant populations from Africa, the broadly segregated and disenfranchised Roma (Gypsy) community, and the rapidly growing anti- establishment youth population. -
