Ice Fog as a Problem of Air Pollution in the Arctic
Open accessAbstract
Extensive field programs were undertaken in Alaska during the winters of 1952-1954 to determine the causes of ice-fog formation. Ice fog forms at temperatures near -30 C and below in populated areas and is particularly troublesome at military installations. It poses no threat to health but seriously restricts visibility. The fog is a direct result of supersaturation of the cold air with water vapor from man-made sources. The only methods of curtailing its formation appear to be restricting vapor emission into the air or confining emission to selected fall stacks. Microphotographs of ice fog particles collected at various temperatures are included.

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.
