... storms in the open water are considered as background oscillations. Compression/ridging events and heterogeneity of ice drift generate periodic micro-shearings that can be registered in ice cover as mechanical horizontally polarized waves. Ice compression/fracture event can be predicted by analyses...

... Comparison of Co- and Cross-Polarization Measurements for the Detection of Growlers and Bergy Bits in Rain Using X-Band Radar Armin Parsa R&D Department, Rutter Inc. St. John s, Newfoundland, Canada ABSTRACT An experimental study of glacier ice detection in rain using X-band radar is presented...

... series the influence of multiple changes of the polarization of the cycles has been found less important than previously thought. An effect not captured in the HCA model yet has been detected in a series of multistage tests: A change of the average stress between bundles of cycles partly or completely...

... and potential role of these sensors in supporting requirements within the industry. INTRODUCTION The polar regions, and the Arctic and sub-Arctic in particular, are growing in importance to the oil and gas industry as the scale of the resources there (Figure 1) and the declining and politically charged...

... the cathodic current behavior. As a result of the cathodic polarization is the alkalization at the metal/solution interface, where the increase of OH - shifts the carbon dioxide system equilibrium towards the formation of carbonate and allowing the precipitation of CaCO 3 to take place (Barchiche et al. 2003...

... providing depth to any shallow consolidated unit below the sediment-water interface. However, resistivity alone cannot distinguish lithologies- for instance, it cannot separate low-porosity basalt from low-porosity clay. For nearly half a century, the induced polarization method (IP) has been used on land...

... in sediments. The dielectric permittivity is a measure of the ease with which molecules can be polarized and oriented in an electric field. The results indicate that ion concentration in the sediment-water system responds well to the dielectric permittivity and electrical conductivity of the system...
