| Title: | Crystal growth rates in polar firn / Hitoshi Shoji, Atau Mitani, Kohji Horita, Chester C. Langway, Jr. |
| Author(s): | Shoji, Hitoshi. Mitani, Atau. Horita, Kohji. Langway, Chester C., |
| Date: | 1993. |
| In: | Annals of Glaciology. (1993.), Vol. 18 (1993) |
| Abstract: | Continuous measurements made on Antarctic ice core (100 m deep) show enhanced growth rates above 30 m and between 70 and 80 m. Crystal growth in first zone probably takes place by sublimation and condensation, whereas higher growth rate in second zone is related to pore close-off transformation in which non-uniform strain field is created to form air bubbles by plastic deformation and "cannibalization" of individual ice crystals. |
