It is an object of the invention to provide an underwater frazil ice detector which is self cleaning. |
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. |
Hydrothane is proven to eliminate frazil ice and to control the growth of marine organisms such as barnacles and zebra mussels. |
The second has the frazil ice model embedded in a commonly used sub-ice shelf ocean circulation model, which is then applied to a simple ice shelf-ocean model domain. |
As the slush moves into a flatter, slower moving portion of the stream, the frazil will accumulate under the ice cover. |
Contaminant fluxes associated with the process of frazil ice formation in the Kara sea are much smaller than worst-case estimates. |
