Ice Formation and Propagation in Alpine Plants
2011Low atmospheric temperatures are among the well-known common features of the alpine macroclimate (see Korner 2003). Absolute low temperature extremes at high altitude sites are no greater than at low altitude sites. The lowest absolute air temperature minimum at high altitude in the Austrian Alps was −37.4°C (Mt. Sonnblick, 3,105 m, 1 Jan. 1905).

The formation of ice in plant tissues
Planta, 1962The formation of ice in the petioles ofSolanum acaule andSolanum tuberosum has been studied by light microscopy and by continuous recordings of latent heat production. Frost hardy material ofS. acaule, when slightly turgor deficient, freezes in two distinct stages. The first short freezing is due to the crystallisation of liquid in the vascular tissues

Extrinsic Ice Nucleation in Plants
2002In the early 1980's a considerable amount of research focused on the role of extrinsic ice nucleation and its= role in inducing plants to freeze at warm sub-zero temperatures. The working hypothesis was that by controlling extrinsic nucleation events, plants could supercool well below 0 °C and thus avoid freezing (Lindow, 1995). It was felt that such a

Ice Pond Cooling of a Power Plant
Nuclear Technology, 1978The primary objective of the study was to analyze the feasibility of using a large ice water heat sink for power plant cooling and to predict the effect of the relatively cool condenser water, produced by this system, on plant performance. For a chosen hypothetical site, the study has shown that a large ice mass could be produced during winter in ...

Estimating Ice Encasement Tolerance of Herbage Plants
2014One of the key stresses acting on herbage plants during winter is ice encasement, when plants are enclosed in compact ice and turn from aerobic to anaerobic respiration. The cause of cell death is related to the accumulation of metabolites to toxic levels during winter and perhaps also to production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) when plants escape ...
