The premelting of ice and its environmental consequences
Abstract
Several mechanisms can extend the equilibrium domain of a liquid phase into the solid region of the normal phase diagram. The causes of premelting, which include surface melting, interface curvature and substrate disorder, occur in all types of substances, including H 2 O. In the case of H 2 O, premelting can have important environmental consequences, among which are the heaving of frozen ground, breakdown of rock and concrete, sintering of snow, flow of glaciers, scavenging of atmospheric trace gases by snow and ice, and the electrification of thunderclouds. The article reviews the basic mechanisms of premelting and discusses their roles in the environmental phenomena. The principal results of numerous studies are reviewed, and trends in current research are outlined.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
