Record #53921:

The weathering of beach pebbles at Hornsund / Andrzej Martini.

Title: The weathering of beach pebbles at Hornsund / Andrzej Martini.
Author(s): Martini, Andrzej.
Date: 1975.
Publisher: Wrocław: Panstwowe Wydawnictwo Naukowe
In: Results of the investigations of the Polish scientific Spitsbergen expeditions 1970-1974. Vol. 1. (1975.), Vol. 12
Abstract: Many pebbles forming storm embankments in north part of Hornsund Fjord are marked by slice-shaped cleaving. Existing topographic-climatic conditions of littoral zone promote intensive frost weathering and also contribute to increased hydration and dehydration, best shown by decay of sandstone and schists. This decomposes inner structure of beach gravels and furthers action of frost. Crystallisation of mineral salts and migration of Fe components may also contribute to process.
