Size distributions of bergy bits and growlers calved from deteriorating icebergs / Greg B. Crocker.
Title: | Size distributions of bergy bits and growlers calved from deteriorating icebergs / Greg B. Crocker. |
Author(s): | Crocker, Greg B. |
Date: | 1993. |
In: | Cold Regions Science and Technology. (1993.), Vol. 22(1) (1993) |
Abstract: | Measurements in Bonavista Bay, Newfoundland, show inverse exponential relationship between water-line length and frequency of occurrence. Most particles calved are too small to be of significance in context of ice/structure interaction. On average, 13.9 particles in 5 to 20 m length range were produced per calving event. Only 1.9 of these are >10 m in length. |
