Modeling the Unfrozen Water Content of Frozen Soil Based on the Absorption Effects of Clay Surfaces
Unfrozen water content significantly affects the thermal‐hydro‐mechanical characteristics of frozen soil. Currently, theoretical explanations for the presence of unfrozen water include capillary action, surface effects, adsorption forces, and the ...

Glacial varves at the distal slope of Pandivere-Neva ice-recessional formations in western Estonia [PDF]
The distribution and varve thickness data of Late Weichselian varved clay were analyzed to describe the proglacial sedimentary environment, ice recession and water-level changes in the Baltic Ice Lake at the distal position of Pandivere–Neva (13.5–13.1 ...

Water content (WC) and dry matter content (DMC) are some of the most basic parameters to describe plant growth and yield, but are exceptionally difficult to measure non-invasively. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) relaxometry may fill this methodological

Softening of Temperate Ice by Interstitial Water
Ice at depth in ice-stream shear margins is thought to commonly be temperate, with interstitial meltwater that softens ice. Models that include this softening extrapolate results of a single experimental study in which ice effective viscosity decreased ...
