They sometimes have stripes, formed by layers of snow
that react to different conditions.
Blue stripes are often created when a crevice in the ice
sheet fills up with melt water and freezes so quickly
that no bubbles form.
When an iceberg falls into the lake, a layer of water
can freeze to the underside. If this is rich in algae,
it can form a green stripe.
Brown, black and yellow lines are caused by sediment,
picked up when the ice sheet grinds downhill towards the
lake.
Frozen Wave Pixs - Nature is amazing!
The water froze the instant the wave broke through theice.
That's what it is like in Lake Michigan where it is the
coldest weather in decades. Water freezes the instantit
comes in contact with the air. The temperature of the
water is already some degrees below freezing.
Just look at how the wave froze in mid-air!!!
Having the Internet means that we get to see somethingthat
