(Table 14-2) Cryotexture, sediment description and selected ice content of samples from the Pokhodskaya Yedoma Island

Ice content is the amount of ice contained in frozen or partially frozen soil or rock.- absolute ice content: the ratio of the mass of the ice in a sample to the mass of the frozen sample- gravimetric ice content: the ratio of the mass of the ice in a sample to the mass of the dry sample (the gravim...

Description
Summary:Ice content is the amount of ice contained in frozen or partially frozen soil or rock.- absolute ice content: the ratio of the mass of the ice in a sample to the mass of the frozen sample- gravimetric ice content: the ratio of the mass of the ice in a sample to the mass of the dry sample (the gravimetric ice content can greatly exceed 100 percent)
