Studies on the Density of Naturally and Artificially Formed Fresh-Water Ice

Abstract Observations were made on the density of naturally and artificially formed lake and river ice. The effect of initial snow density, size and shape of snow crystals, rate of water spread and rate of freezing on the density of snow-ice obtained was studied in the laboratory and is presented in...
