Technique for Studying Structure of Sea Ice
Abstract A microtoming and replicating technique has been developed for examining the micro-structure of sea ice optically and by scanning electron microscope. This dual observation method is useful for studying the grain and sub-grain structure of sea ice, the nature of the brine pockets, and the p...

| Summary: | Abstract A microtoming and replicating technique has been developed for examining the micro-structure of sea ice optically and by scanning electron microscope. This dual observation method is useful for studying the grain and sub-grain structure of sea ice, the nature of the brine pockets, and the precipitation pattern of the salt crystals at low temperatures. |
