On the Thermodynamic and Kinetic Aspects of Immersion Ice Nucleation [PDF]
Heterogeneous ice nucleation initiated by particles immersed within droplets is likely the main pathway of ice formation in the atmosphere. Theoretical models commonly used to describe this process assume that it mimics ice formation from the vapor ...

Ocean dynamics of outer solar system satellites
, 2019 Ocean worlds are prevalent in the solar system. Focusing on Enceladus, Titan, Europa, and Ganymede, I use rotating convection theory and numerical simulations to predict ocean currents and the potential for ice-ocean coupling.

Topological Sector Fluctuations and Curie Law Crossover in Spin Ice [PDF]
, 2012 At low temperatures, a spin ice enters a Coulomb phase - a state with algebraic correlations and topologically constrained spin configurations. In Ho2Ti2O7, we have observed experimentally that this process is accompanied by a non-standard temperature ...

Regime characteristics and patterns of the sea ice drift on the shelf at Magadan in the Okhotsk Sea
Известия ТИНРО, 2016 The sea ice characteristics and drift patterns are considered for the Okhotsk Sea shelf at Magadan on retrospective data of the ice observations and satellite images. Spatial heterogeneity of the sea ice parameters and its drift is shown.

Modern characteristics of the ice regime of the Lower Yenisei
Водное хозяйство России: проблемы, технологии, управлениеIn the current conditions of climate change, the relevance of the rivers’ ice regime studies is growing. Special features of rivers’ ice regime are a significant component of the transport infrastructure use and, as a consequence, social/economic ...

Estimation of the age of ice hummocks in the freezing seas
Лëд и снег, 2019 A method of estimating the ice ridge age proposed in the 1990s was analyzed and some disadvantages of this method were shown. Analysis of the ice thickness distribution in the ice ridges demonstrated that in many cases the average value of the thickness ...

The variability of tropical ice cloud properties as a function of the large-scale context from ground-based radar-lidar observations over Darwin, Australia [PDF]
, 2010 The high complexity of cloud parameterizations now held in models puts more pressure on observational studies to provide useful means to evaluate them. One approach to the problem put forth in the modelling community is to evaluate under what atmospheric
