Determination of the Predominant Orientation of Cracks in Ice Cover of the Laptev Sea from the Ice Drift Data by L. N. Dyment, A. A. Ershova, V. S. Porubaev, A. A. Chirkova

“…Results obtained were compared with actual modal orientations of the cracks and with characteristics of the atmospheric pressure fields in these days. It was found that selecting of initial ice drift data should be done with regard for the intensity of air flows, the invariability or constancy of the direction of air flows over the sea aquatory during several days, and the presence of a cyclone centered over the sea area. …”
