An Improved Method for Determining Ice Fabrics
Abstract In ice-fabric studies, use of an accessory plate is necessary in conjunction with the Rigsby universal stage to discriminate between the a- and c -axes of an ice crystal when the orientation of the c -axis is parallel or nearly parallel to the stage. The techniques described permit orientat...

Summary: | Abstract In ice-fabric studies, use of an accessory plate is necessary in conjunction with the Rigsby universal stage to discriminate between the a- and c -axes of an ice crystal when the orientation of the c -axis is parallel or nearly parallel to the stage. The techniques described permit orientation of the c -axis regardless of its orientation. |
