Voorbeelden van floe

• Gentle breezes from the east, south, and south-west did not disturb the hardening floes. 

• Soon they would be able to cross from the solid shore ice to the drifting floe. 

• The easterly gale would send the floes up stream. 

• They found a small floe of level ice close to the beach, which appeared very lately formed. 

• We then passed over four or five small floes, and across the pools of water that lay between them. 

• On occasion, icebergs were embedded in those floes.

• The large size of the floes, and extensive ridging, probably make them more likely to persist until molting is complete.

• These also link to tidal cracks, the floe edge, moving ice, and polynyas, as influenced by wind and current conditions.

• Most of those seen offshore were young and non-reproductive, and were seen mostly on large ice floes.

• It also included new images of polar scenes, including naval ships with icebergs, and men hauling boats across the floes.

• Moreover, multi-year floes, up to several kilometres long, were scattered throughout the area.

• These also link to the floe edge, tidal cracks, and polynyas, as influenced by wind and current conditions.

• The survivors were marooned on an ice floe and driven against a large berg.

• These monthly increases in tidal variation can be most destructive on ice conditions, and can cause the greatest variation in polynya size or floe edge dynamics.

• Therefore, it is imperative that they are mindful of the different movements and conditions along the floe edge to safely cross onto, or back from, the moving ice.

• Many birds were also seen on fast ice, particularly on the heavily ridged outer fringes, that might also be the source of the 'floating island' floes.

• Louise struck heavily and repeatedly against ice floes as she was towed, but suffered no damage, although a towing cable parted at one point.

• Floes >2 km are generally the large multi-year floes referred to in the text, where numbers of emperor penguins were found.

• Uiguaq meaning what's adding on from the existing floe edge to the new one, and it occurs right through the winter.

• Petrell had hit an ice floe during a westerly storm and had sunk while the men were away hunting reindeer.
