| As the slush moves into a flatter, slower moving portion of the stream, the frazil will accumulate under the ice cover. |
| The initial form of sea ice is a slurry of ice crystals called frazil ice, which under various conditions grow together to form many different and complex ice forms. |
| The amount of frazil ice is proportional to the extent of the open water area and the rate of heat loss. |
| Hydrothane is proven to eliminate frazil ice and to control the growth of marine organisms such as barnacles and zebra mussels. |
| Thicker, soupy accumulations of frazil ice which are often herded by wind action are termed grease ice. |
| It is an object of the invention to provide an underwater frazil ice detector which is self cleaning. |
