The surface mass balance (SMB) of large polar ice sheets and of snow and ice surfaces in general are incompletely understood because of the complexity of processes involved. One such process, drifting and blowing snow, has only been considered in a very si ...

Spatio-Temporal Dynamics of Snow on Central Arctic Sea Ice and its Implications

David Nicholas Wagner

This thesis presents a comprehensive investigation of the interaction between precipitation and wind-induced erosion and deposition of snow on Arctic sea ice. The study uses observations from the 2019-2020 MOSAiC expedition and makes use of the 3D snow cov ...

Exploring alternative possibilities for sublimation measurements over snow and ice surfaces

Michael Lehning, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Franziska Gerber, Armin Sigmund

Sublimation of snow is a major depletion mechanism, particularly in dry and windy environments such as high mountains or polar regions. Yet the quantification of the latent heat flux is a difficult task, and both measurements and estimates from models stil ...

The impact of secondary ice processes on orographic mixed-phase clouds

Athanasios Nenes, Alexis Berne, Georgia Sotiropoulou, Paraskevi Georgakaki, Etienne Gabriel Henri Vignon

Ground based and airborne observations of orographic mixed-phase clouds (MPCs) forming over mountain top research stations have long reported a discrepancy between the measured ice crystal number concentrations (ICNCs) and the concentration of ice nucleati ...

CH4 and N2O fluctuations during the penultimate deglaciation

Jérôme Chappellaz

Gas is trapped in polar ice sheets at ∼50-120m below the surface and is therefore younger than the surrounding ice. Firn densification models are used to evaluate this ice age-gas age difference (Δage) in the past. However, such models need to be validated ...

Bathymetry and latitude modify lake warming under ice

Damien Bouffard, Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez, Tomy Doda, Cintia Luz Ramon Casanas, Kraig Bates Winters

In late winter, solar radiation is the main driver of water motion in ice-covered lakes. The resulting circulation and mixing determine the spatial distribution of heat within the lake and affect the heat budget of the ice cover. Although under-ice lake wa ...

Radiation detection and energy conversion in nuclear reactor environments by hybrid photovoltaic perovskites

László Forró, Endre Horvath, Andrzej Sienkiewicz, Bálint Náfrádi, Márton Kollár, Pavao Roko Andricevic

Detection and direct power conversion of high energy and high intensity ionizing radiation could be a key element in next generation nuclear reactor safety systems and space-born devices. For example, the Fukushima catastrophe in 2011 could have been large ...

PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD2020

Gas is trapped in polar ice at depths of ∼50-120 m and is therefore significantly younger than the ice in which it is embedded. The age difference is not well constrained for slowly accumulating ice on the East Antarctic Plateau, introducing a significant ...

The influence of HCl on the evaporation rates of H2O over water ice in the range 188 to 210 K at small average concentrations

Michel Rossi, Christophe Eric Ludovic Delval

The evaporation flux J(ev)(H2O) of H2O from HCl-doped typically 1.5 mu m or so thick vapor-deposited ice films has been measured in a combined quartz crystal microbalance (QCMB)-residual gas mass spectrometry (MS) experiment. J(ev)(H2O) has been found to s ...
