The Effect of Absorbed Solar Radiation on the Thermal Diffusion in Antarctic Fresh-Water Ice and Sea Ice

Ice temperatures were measured on the ice plateau at Mawson, Antarctica, for one year down to depths of 11 m. and through a floating sea-ice cover for six months. The plateau data were examined by harmonic analysis and the thermal diffusivity of the ice was obtained from the classical model of heat...
