Heat exchange and sea ice growth in Arctic Canada.
Stefan's equation for ice accretion has been modified to take into account the affects of snow depth and density. For regions in the Canadian Arctic the modified equation, when applied in the presence of a light snow cover with climatic estimates of heat loss, gave a satisfactory explanation of...

| Summary: | Stefan's equation for ice accretion has been modified to take into account the affects of snow depth and density. For regions in the Canadian Arctic the modified equation, when applied in the presence of a light snow cover with climatic estimates of heat loss, gave a satisfactory explanation of the observed ice growth (correlation coefficient = .99).
