Sea Ice Growth in Potential Arctic Minefield Areas
An empirical method of determining the date of initial ice formation using daily air temperatures is described and applied to Zubov's and Kolesnikov's equations to determine day-to-day growth in ice thickness. Several methods are used also to estimate ice drift and disintegration. Presente...

Summary: | An empirical method of determining the date of initial ice formation using daily air temperatures is described and applied to Zubov's and Kolesnikov's equations to determine day-to-day growth in ice thickness. Several methods are used also to estimate ice drift and disintegration. Presented at the Technical Conference on the Naval Minefield (16th). |
