The Growth of the Glacier Crystal
Abstract This paper concludes the earlier researches of the author and his colleagues on the development of glacier ice from the snow crystal. It traces the crystal growth down to the end of the glacier and records the distribution of large crystals in glacier tongues. Various agencies are suggested...

| Summary: | Abstract This paper concludes the earlier researches of the author and his colleagues on the development of glacier ice from the snow crystal. It traces the crystal growth down to the end of the glacier and records the distribution of large crystals in glacier tongues. Various agencies are suggested which might help in the proposed investigation of the mechanisms of growth of the crystals of glacier ice. |
