False bottom is a form of sea ice that forms at the interface between meltwater and seawater via the process of double-diffusive convection of heat and...

mistaken by sonar for the seabed. In Polar research, the false bottom refers to the type of thin sea ice which is formed underwater at the interface of low-salinity...

Sea ice arises as seawater freezes. Because ice is less dense than water, it floats on the ocean's surface (as does fresh water ice). Sea ice covers about...

above and below Arctic sea ice, decreasing its albedo and causing the formation of thin underwater ice layers or false bottoms. Meltwater is water that...

under-ice meltwater may affect sea-ice salinity. During the melt season, the only process of ice growth is related to the formation of false bottoms. The...
