Diamond wire-saw cutting techniques for investigating textures and fabrics of debris-laden ice and brittle ice

Presents an original method for sampling special ice types like debris-rich ice or brittle ice that cannot be prepared using the standard band-saw/microtome procedure. The general working principles of the diamond wire-sawing technique are explained, and special adaptations for ice-cutting, thick-se...

Description
Summary:Presents an original method for sampling special ice types like debris-rich ice or brittle ice that cannot be prepared using the standard band-saw/microtome procedure. The general working principles of the diamond wire-sawing technique are explained, and special adaptations for ice-cutting, thick-sectioning and thin-sectioning are discussed. -Author SCOPUS: NotDefined.j info:eu-repo/semantics/published
