New synthetic fiber armored cable for freezing-in thermal ice probes
A series of new synthetic armored cables were developed and tested to ensure that they were suitable for use with the RECoverable Autonomous Sonde (RECAS), which is a newly designed freezing-in thermal ice probe.

Airborne electromagnetic sea ice thickness sounding in shallow, brackish water environments of the Caspian and Baltic Seas [PDF]
Ice engineering projects often rely on the knowledge of ice thickness in shallow, brackish water like in the Baltic and Caspian Seas. By means of field data and model results, the paper shows that helicopter-borne electromagnetic induction measurements ...

Targeted protein delivery: carbodiimide crosslinking influences protein release from microparticles incorporated within collagen scaffolds [PDF]
open access articleTissue engineering response may be tailored via controlled, sustained release of active agents from protein-loaded degradable microparticles incorporated directly within three-dimensional (3D) ice-templated collagen scaffolds. However,

Enhancement of macromolecular ice recrystallization inhibition activity by exploiting depletion forces [PDF]
Antifreeze (glyco) proteins (AF(G)Ps) are potent inhibitors of ice recrystallization and may have biotechnological applications. The most potent AF(G)Ps function at concentrations a thousand times lower than synthetic mimics such as poly(vinyl alcohol ...

Cyclic strengthening of lake ice
Further to systematic experiments on the flexural strength of laboratory-grown, fresh water ice loaded cyclically, this paper describes results from new experiments of the same kind on lake ice harvested in Svalbard. The experiments were conducted at −12

Ice-Cover and Jamming Effects on Inline Structures and Upstream Water Levels
River ice cover is a reoccurring phenomenon in the Northern United States every year. Sheets and layers of ice result in a rise of water surface elevation and may lead to ice jams in a river.
