Abstract

AbstractMapping the spatial distribution ofc-axis orientations in ice thin sections is not much more difficult than preparingc-axis scatter plots but can reveal additional information about processes responsible for the observed fabric and texture of the ice. Distributions of angles betweencaxes of neighboring grains from the Byrd Station (West Antarctica) ice core suggest that polygonization causes average grain-size to stabilize below 400 m depth.
