    Description: The high-salinity surface layer of young sea ice was subjected to field and laboratory experiments. Artificial pools, in which young ice was formed, were opened within a fast-ice sheet in the Saroma lagoon, Hokkaido, in February of 1983 and 1984. The salinity of 1 mm thick surface layer of the young ice was observed as high as 42.4‰, which exceeds the seawater salinity of 31‰. The surface salinity increased with rising surface temperature. When a load was placed on the fast ice near the pool, seeped brine of salinity 72.5‰ was observed on the surface of the young ice; and when the load was removed, the brine disappeared. Meanwhile, brine permeabilities, both upward and downward, were measured in the laboratory, Both permeabilities decreased logarithmically with lowering surface temperature. A remarkable anisotropy was observed: the upward permeability was greater than downward, and the ratio of upward to downward premeability increased with lowering surface temperature from 5 at -3 °C to 33 at -5°C. Upward and downward permeabilities in ms-1 were respectively 1x10-4 and 2x10-5 at -3°C, 2x10-5 and 6x10-7 at -5°C, and at -10°C upward permeability was 3x10-7.

    Description: As the greater part of sea-ice area is covered with snow, the thermal regime of sea ice is characterized by the thermal behavior of snow-covered sea ice. In this paper the thermal regime of snow-covered sea ice is quantitatively investigated with a one-dimensional non-linear boundary model which contains: compaction of snow cover; internal absorption of solar radiation; evaporation–condensation within snow cover; equilibrium phase change of brine within sea ice; and vertical oceanic heat flux from seawater to ice. Penetration of air temperature oscillations into the snow-covered sea ice increases remarkably with increasing snow density. As internal melting within the snow-covered sea ice appears with increasing solar radiation, the rise in air temperature and increase of solar radiation in the springtime produce a corresponding change in the thermal state of sea ice, causing a drastic retreat of sea-ice cover. A case study for warm sea ice is presented describing the thermal state during the melting season.

    Description: Movement of pack ice off the Okhotsk Sea coast of Hokkaido was investigated using combinations of sea ice radar photographs and Landsat MSS imageries. The sea ice radar network, consisting of three C-band (5.54 GHz) radar stations, covers an area of about 60 km across and 250 km along the coast. As radar echoes display not the shape of ice floes but the roughness of the ice field, the shapes of floes were drawn on a radar photograph overlaid upon a simultaneous Landsat Fig. 1. The coverage of the sea ice radar network. imagery. Each floe was then traced on the sequential photographs of radar display. The path of each floe frequently indicated a trochoidal oscillation of 18-hour period which is close to the inertial period of this area-Such paths were examined as representing the motion of inertial circle transported upon a long-period movement. The parameter v/U indicates the magnitude of meandering movement of an ice floe within the inertial period, where v is the circumferential velocity of inertial circle motion and U is the average velocity of a main drift in the inertial period. Values of v/U were obtained in a wide range from 0.4 to 8.3 for 18-hour trochoidal paths sampled.
