There has been continuous optimization of the freezing rate in mechanical freezing to minimize ice crystal size. [2] Flash freezing techniques are also used to freeze biological samples quickly so that large ice crystals cannot form and damage the sample. [5] This is done by submerging the sample in liquid nitrogen or a mixture of dry ice and ...
The last great freeze of the higher Thames was in 1962–63. [4] Frost fairs were a rare event even in the coldest parts of the Little Ice Age. Some of the recorded frost fairs were in 695, 1608, 1683–84, 1716, 1739–40, 1789, and 1814.

The pathological mechanism by which frostbite causes body tissue injury can be characterized by four stages: Prefreeze, freeze-thaw, vascular stasis, and the late ischemic stage. [16] Prefreeze phase: involves the cooling of tissues without ice crystal formation. [16] Freeze-thaw phase: ice-crystals form, resulting in cellular damage and death ...
The split of the A38-B iceberg is recorded in this series of images. The iceberg was originally part of the massive A-38 iceberg, which broke from the Ronne Ice Shelf in Antarctica [3] B-15A: 6,400 2002 Northern edge of Iceberg B-15A in the Ross Sea, Antarctica, 29 January 2002: A-68: 5,800 175 50 2017 Calving crack in the Larsen C ice shelf [2 ...
