The physical basis of frost weathering: toward a more fundamental and unified perspective / Joseph S. Walder, Bernard Hallet.
Title: | The physical basis of frost weathering: toward a more fundamental and unified perspective / Joseph S. Walder, Bernard Hallet. |
Author(s): | Walder, Joseph S. Hallet, Bernard. |
Date: | 1986. |
In: | Arctic and Alpine Research. (1986.), Vol. 18(1) (1986) |
Abstract: | Challenges theory that volumetric expansion of pore water upon freezing plays dominant role in frost cracking of rock, suggesting how fundamental considerations of thermodynamics of water and ice in porous media, and of fracture-mechanical behaviour of rock, can lead to unified view of process. |
Notes: | Arctic and Alpine Research. Vol. 18(1) :27-32 (1986). |
Keywords: | 551.342 -- Frost shattering. E8 -- Glaciology: frost action and permafrost. |
