Since its introduction in 1943 Recommended Dietary Allowances has become the accepted
source of nutrient allowances for healthy people. These Recommended Dietary Allowances …

Explains the physical principles underlying the behaviour of glaciers and ice sheets and
concludes with a chapter on the information about past climate and atmospheric …

▪ Abstract The icy moons of the outer solar system have not been quiescent bodies, in part
because many have a substantial water component and have experienced significant …

Galileo observations of Europa's thermal emission show low-latitude diurnal brightness
temperatures in the range of 86 to 132 kelvin. Nighttime temperatures form an unexpected …

Ice-flow modeling requires a flow law relating strain rates to stresses in situ, but a flow law
cannot be measured directly in ice sheets. Microscopic processes such as dislocation glide …

A comprehensive study of textures and fabrics has been carried out on the Greenland Ice
Core Project (GRIP) ice core. Crystal sizes and c axis orientations have been measured on …

An important feature of natural ice, in addition to the obvious relevance of glaciers and ice
sheets for climate-related issues, is its ability to creep on geological time scales and low …

Ice recrystallization occurs during cryopreservation and is correlated with reduced cell
viability after thawing. Therefore, ice recrystallization inhibition (IRI) activity is a very …

Here we present measurements of the gas content and isotopic composition of debris-rich
basal layers of a polar glacier, Meserve Glacier, Antarctica, which has a basal temperature …

The viscosity of ice I is grain size dependent for temperature and stress conditions
appropriate for ice I shells and mantles of large and midsized icy satellites. Satellite thermal …
