The interaction of grounded ice ridges with underlying seabed is one of the major considerations in the design of Arctic pipeline system. Previously several ice scour models were developed by researchers to describe the ice scour-seabed interaction mechanism. In view of possible improvements, a comparative study of those ice scour models is performed and their limitation in modeling is discussed. Simple laboratory tests are carried out and then the shape pattern of deposited soil around the ice model is newly defined. Unlike the rectangular idealization of an ice block, in this modified ice scour model, trapezoidal cross sections are assumed to represent the typical shape of an ice ridge based on the field observation data. With the horizontal and vertical motion of ice model, the ice scour depth and soil reacting forces on seabed are calculated with varying the keel angle of an ice ridge.

Interaction of grounded ice ridges with underlying seabed is one of the major considerations in the design of Arctic pipeline system. Previously several ice scour models were developed by researchers to describe the ice scour-seabed interaction mechanism. In this paper, a parametric study on ice scouring mechanism is performed and the limitation of ice scour-seabed interaction models is discussed. Simple laboratory tests are carried out and then the shape pattern of deposited soil around the ice is redefined. New ice scour model assumes trapezoidal cross section based on the field observation data. Ice scour depth and soil resistance forces on seabed are calculated with varying the keel angle of a model ice ridge.

Medium-scale tests were conducted to measure and observe the strength and failure behavior of freshwater ice rubble. A custom box measuring $3.05m{\times}0.94m{\times}0.94m$, with Plexiglas walls was built so that failure mechanisms could be observed. Ice rubble beams of nominal thickness 50 cm were produced by placing randomly sized ice pieces into the box filled with water at its freezing temperature. After the specified consolidation time, ranging between 0.2 and 70.5 h, the ice rubble beam was deformed by pushing a platen vertically downwards though the center of the beam until failure. For consolidation times less than 4 h, the ice beam failed progressively and tended to fail by shearing on macroscopic scale. At times greater than 4 h the beam failed by bending. The change in failure behaviour has been attributed to the degree of bonding between ice blocks.

A dynamic-thermodynamic sea ice model with 50-km spatial and 24-hour temporal resolution is used to investigate the spatial and long-term temporal variability of the sea ice cover the Arctic Basin. The model satisfactorily reproduces the averaged main characteristics of the sea ice and the sea ice extent in the Arctic Basin and its decrease in early 1990th. At times model allows to suppose partial recovery of sea ice cover in the last years of twenty century. The employment of explicit form for description of ridging gives opportunity to assume that the observed thinning is the result of reduction the intensity of ridging processes and to estimate long-term variability of probability the ridge free navigation in the different parts of the Arctic Ocean including the North Sea Route area.

The spatial size and variation of Arctic sea ice play an important role in Earth's climate system. These are affected by conditions in the polar atmosphere and Arctic sea temperatures. The Arctic sea ice concentration is calculated from brightness temperature data derived from the Defense Meteorological Satellite program (DMSP) F13 Special Sensor Microwave/Imagers (SSMI) and the DMSP F17 Special Sensor Microwave Imager/Sounder (SSMIS) sensors. Many previous studies point to significant reductions in sea ice and their causes. We investigated the variability of Arctic sea ice using the daily sea ice concentration data from passive microwave observations to identify the sea ice melting regions near the Arctic polar ice cap. We discovered the abnormal melting of the Arctic sea ice near the North Pole during the summer and the winter. This phenomenon is hard to explain only surface air temperature or solar heating as suggested by recent studies. We propose a hypothesis explaining this phenomenon. The heat from the deep sea in Arctic Ocean ridges and/or the hydrothermal vents might be contributing to the melting of Arctic sea ice. This hypothesis could be verified by the observation of warm water column structure below the melting or thinning arctic sea ice through the project such as Coriolis dataset for reanalysis (CORA).

The motion of passively floating body, whose keel can have a contact with seabed soil, is under the consideration. The body simulates ice ridge floating in shallow water. The force of seabed soil reaction applied to the grounded keel is estimated taking into account soil embankment near the grounded keel. Two-dimensional trajectories of body motion, the shape of the grooves in seabed and the height of soil embankment are calculated when the motion of the body is caused by semidiurnal $M_2$ tide. The influence of wave amplitude and bottom slope on the shapes of body trajectory and the grooves are analyzed.

본 연구는 동결융해 후 정자의 생존성에 영향을 미치는 요인을 찾기 위하여 수행하였다. 동결융해 후 생존성에 대한 요인으로써 동결보존액, 동해보호제, 예비동결법 및 동결소요시간을 비교하였다. 동결과정중 정액의 질을 평가하기 위하여 활력, NAR 및 생존율을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 돼지정액을 BF5, LYE, Soejima 및 modified Soejima 보존액으로 동결하였을 때 동결융해 후 정자활력은 M-Soejima 보존액이 44.5$\pm$6.4%로 다소 높았다. M-Soejima 보존액의 2차 회석액에 caffeine(2mM), heparin(l00 ${\mu}\ell$/$m\ell$) 및 caffeine＋heparin 를 첨가하였을 때 동결융해 후 활력은 caffeine 첨가구가 61.7% 로 가장 높았으며, 단독 혹은 혼합첨가가 첨가하지 않은 대조구보다 유의적으로 높은 활력을 나타내었다 (p＜0.05). M-Soejima 보존액에 동해보호제로서 glycerol(Gly), ethylene glycol(EG), propylene glycol(GP), Gly＋EG 및 Gly＋PG을 첨가하였을 때 동결융해 후 활력 및 NAR 율은 Gly＋PG의 혼합첨가시 (31.3%/39.5%) 가 다른 첨가구보다 다소 높았으며 생존율은 Gly＋EG 첨가구가 21.2% 로 다른 첨가구보다 다소 높았다. BE5와 M-Soejima 보존액으로 straw 및 pellet 동결법으로 동결하는 동안 dry ice-pellet, dry ice-straw 및 L$N_2$vapor-straw 법으로 예비동결하였을 때 각각 22.8, 47.5, 52.5% 및 42.5, 47.5, 57.5% 의 활력을 나타내었다. 또한 M-Soejima 보존액의 straw 법으로 l차 희석부터 동결완료까지 소요되는 시간을 2, 5 및 7시간으로 하였을 때 동결융해 후 활력 및 생존율은 처리간에 큰 차이가 없었으나, NAR 율은 처리시간이 길어질수록 다소 높은 경향을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과로 미루어 볼 때 동결융해 후 활력, NAR 및 생존율을 높이기 위해서는 caffeine 이 첨가된 M-Soejima 보존액에 동해보호제로 glycerol과 propylene glycol 또는 ehtylene glycol 을 사용하여 2시간 동안 빠르게 동결처리된 정액이 다소 유리할 것으로 사료되었다.
