Precision Measurements of Ice Crystal Growth Rates
Abstract
I describe techniques for making precise measurements of the growth rates of the principal facets of ice crystals. Particular attention is paid to identifying and reducing systematic errors in the measurements, as these have plagued earlier attempts to determine ice growth rates. I describe the details of an experimental apparatus we are currently using, and I describe some preliminary results for growth of basal facets at T=-15 C.
