Sea ice growth with lamellar microstructure containing brine channels has been extensively investigated. However, the quantitative growth information of sea ice remains lack due to the uncontrolled crystalline orientation in previous investigations. For the first time, we in-situ observed the unidirectional growth of lamellar sea ice with well-manipulated ice crystal orientation and visualized tip undercooling of sea ice. A semi-empirical model was proposed to quantitatively address the variation of tip undercooling with growth velocity and salinity and compared with a very recent analytical model. With the real-time observation, interesting phenomena of doublon tip in cellular ice growth and growth direction shift of ice dendritic tip were discovered for the first time, which are attributed to the complex solutal diffusion and anisotropic interface kinetics in sea ice growth. The quantitative experiment provides a clear micro scenario of sea ice growth, and will promote relevant investigations of sea ice in terms of the theoretical approach to describing the diffusion field around faceted ice dendritic tip.

1) The annual cycle of atmospheric methane in southern high latitudes is extremely highly correlated with Antarctic sea ice extent. 2) The annual cycle of atmospheric methane in the Arctic is highly correlated with Antarctic or Arctic plus Antarctic
sea ice extent. 3) We propose the global annual cycle of atmospheric methane is largely driven by Antarctic sea ice dynamics, with relatively stronger influence from other fluxes (probably the biota) in the Northern Hemisphere. 4) We propose degassing during sea ice freeze and temperature dependent solubility in the ocean dominate the annual methane cycle. 5) Results provide evidence that carbon cycle pathways, parameters and predictions must be reassessed.
Freezing of ice has been largely reported from many aspects, especially its complex pattern formation. Ice grown from liquid phase is usually characteristic of lamellar morphology which plays a significant role in various domains. However, tilted gro
wth of ice via transition from coplanar to non-coplanar growth in directional solidification has been paid little attention in previous studies and there is misleading explanation of the formation of tilted lamellar ice. Here, we in-situ investigated the variations of tilting behavior of lamellar ice tip under different conditions within a single ice crystal with manipulated orientation via unidirectional freezing of aqueous solutions. It is found that tilted growth of ice tips is sensitive to pulling velocity and solute type. These experimental results reveal intrinsic tilted growth behavior of lamellar ice and enrich our understanding in pattern formation of ice.
We examine scaling in two-dimensional simulations of dendritic growth at low undercooling, as well as in three-dimensional pivalic acid dendrites grown on NASAs USMP-4 Isothermal Dendritic Growth Experiment. We report new results on self-similar evol
ution in both the experiments and simulations. We find that the time dependent scaling of our low undercooling simulations displays a cross-over scaling from a regime different than that characterizing Laplacian growth to steady-state growth.
The mechanism of the evolution of the deformed microstructure at the earliest stage of annealing where the existence of the lowest length scale substructure paves the way to the formation of the so-called subgrains, has been studied for the first tim
e. The study has been performed at high temperature on heavily deformed Ti-modified austenitic stainless steel using X-ray diffraction technique. Significant changes were observed in the values of the domain size, both with time and temperature. Two different types of mechanism have been proposed to be involved during the microstructural evolution at the earliest stages of annealing. The nature of the growth of domains with time at different temperatures has been modelled using these mechanisms. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy has been used to view the microstructure of the deformed and annealed sample and the results have been corroborated successfully with those found from the X-ray diffraction techniques.
In-situ NMR spin-lattice relaxation measurements were performed on several vapor deposited ices. The measurements, which span more than 6 orders of magnitude in relaxation times, show a complex spin-lattice relaxation pattern that is strongly depende
nt on the growth conditions of the sample. The relaxation patterns change from multi-timescale relaxation for samples grown at temperatures below the amorphous-crystalline transition temperature to single exponential recovery for samples grown above the transition temperature. The slow-relaxation contribution seen in cold-grown samples exhibits a temperature dependence, and becomes even slower after the sample is annealed at 200K. The fast-relaxation contribution seen in these samples, does not seem to change or disappear even when heating to temperatures where the sample is evaporated. The possibility that the fast relaxation component is linked to the microporous structures in amorphous ice samples is further examined using an environmental electron scanning microscope. The images reveal complex meso-scale microporous structures which maintain their morphology up to their desorption temperatures. These findings, support the possibility that water molecules at pore surfaces might be responsible for the fast-relaxation contribution. Furthermore, the results of this study indicate that the pore-collapse dynamics observed in the past in amorphous ices using other experimental techniques, might be effectively inhibited in samples which are grown by relatively fast vapor deposition.
