An Analysis of the In-Situ Resistivity of Sea Ice in Terms of its Microstructure
AbstractThe results of 66 Schlumberger geoelectric soundings on first-year sea ice are analysed to obtain average values of d.c. electrical resistivity both parallelρ1 and perpendicularρpto the long brine cell direction. This analysis yieldsρ1 = 104 Ω m, 80 Ω m, 45 Ω m, andρp= 298 Ω m, 230 Ω m, 129...
