This was evidence that in this particular place, sea water is actually freezing onto the base of the ice instead of melting it.]
My experience in the Weddell Sea at Kvitkuven ice rise where the glacier glides out over the shelf and detaches itself from the ground, small glittering ice flakes abound. My interpretation of the process:
The sea water temperature is abt -1.5 C. The salty ocean water coming in contact with the glacier tongue causes the underwater part of the glacier surface to disolve and immediately to refreeze as minute glittering ice flakes that due to their lower density tend to float up along the “vertical” edge of the glacier tongue.
Let me get this clear.
If I put my beer at the bottom of the Esky and the ice on top of the beer, the beer would get cold.
No. Could not possibly happen.
Brinicles form under sea ice and this has been known since the 1960s. The word brinicle is a contraction of “brine icicle.” The ice forms are called “sea stalactites” due to their resemblance to cave structures. Early forming brinicles crystals are delicate and can be broken by the slightest touch. thescienceexplorer.com/nature/mysterious-phenomena-known-icicles-death
This is a common occurrence and is clearly not taken into account when ‘melting’ is measured on surface ice sheets. Clearly, brinicles could result in a net gain of ice thickness despite surface melting.

So much for the BOM’s gold standard QA.
Come on Bob, guaranteed employment until public service superannuation? No need to think, just regurgitating the same old dogma. Lots of gold in there for those “in the know”.
