Abstract: Two periods of very low (below ?40C) surface temperature of Fairbanks, Alaska, were studied in detail as part of ice fog investigations during the 1961?1962 winter. The observed cooling rates from teh snow surface up to ...

Abstract: A previous attempt to calculate the temperature gradient around a growing ice crystal in clear air started with the radiation budget of the crystal plus the assumption that the measured frost point temperature (about 2C ...

Abstract: he stable isotopic composition of water in ice cores is an important source of information on past climate variability. At its simplest level, the underlying assumption is that there is an empirical relationship between ...

Abstract: The production of the low temperatures which are responsible for ice fog in inhabited areas of interior Alaska would appear to be a classic example of clear sky radiative cooling under nearly polar night conditions. However, ...
