  2. Pumpable ice technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pumpable_ice_technology

    Pumpable ice can be produced in one of two ways: either by mixing crushed ice with a liquid or by freezing water within a liquid. The primary way is to manufacture commonly used forms of crystal solid ice, such as plate, tube, shell or flake ice, by crushing and mixing it with water. This mixture of different ice concentrations and particle

  3. Agricultural cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agricultural_cycle

    The agricultural cycle is the annual cycle of activities related to the growth and harvest of a crop (plant). These activities include loosening the soil, seeding, special watering, moving plants when they grow bigger, and harvesting , among others.

  4. Slurry ice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slurry_ice

    Slurry ice is created through a process of forming spherical ice crystals within a liquid. The slurry ice generator is a scraped-surface vertical shell and tube heat exchanger . It consists of concentric tubes with refrigerant flowing between them and the water/freezing point depressant solution in the inner tube.

    (pl.) aboiteaux A sluice or conduit built beneath a coastal dike, with a hinged gate or a one-way valve that closes during high tide, preventing salt water from flowing into the sluice and flooding the land behind the dike, but remains open during low tide, allowing fresh water precipitation and irrigation runoff to drain from the land into the sea; or a method of land reclamation which relies ...

  7. Wegener–Bergeron–Findeisen process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wegener–Bergeron...

    The Wegener–Bergeron–Findeisen process (after Alfred Wegener, Tor Bergeron, and Walter Findeisen []), (or "cold-rain process") is a process of ice crystal growth that occurs in mixed phase clouds (containing a mixture of supercooled water and ice) in regions where the ambient vapor pressure falls between the saturation vapor pressure over water and the lower saturation vapor pressure over ice.

  8. Sea ice growth processes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_ice_growth_processes

    Sea ice is a complex composite composed primarily of pure ice in various states of crystallization, but including air bubbles and pockets of brine.Understanding its growth processes is important for climate modellers and remote sensing specialists, since the composition and microstructural properties of the ice affect how it reflects or absorbs sunlight.
