A major knowledge gap in the general study of sea ice is the variety of sea ice formation processes in the polar ocean environment. In reaction to thermal and mechanical forces, natural sea ice forms in various shapes and volumes, and with differing physical and chemical properties. In turn, sea ice also alters these forces to self-regulate its growth in a complex feedback process. In view of the role played by sea ice in affecting the ocean circulation, and the interplay of ocean circulation and environmental change, a better understanding of ice production mechanisms is needed. This study will be based on research developed in the engineering field, where a large body of mechanistically driven studies exist, and where details of the turbulence structure and related heat and mass transfer have been determined. Most of these results have not been considered in a sea ice modeling context, and are expected to lead to the design of a series of wave tank and field experiments.

海冰一般研究中的一个主要知识空白是极地海洋环境中海冰形成过程的多样性。在热力和机械力的作用下，天然海冰形成各种形状和体积，并具有不同的物理和化学性质。反过来，海冰也会改变这些力量，在一个复杂的反馈过程中自我调节自己的生长。鉴于海冰在影响海洋环流中发挥的作用，以及海洋环流和环境变化的相互作用，需要更好地了解冰的产生机制。这项研究将基于工程领域中发展起来的研究，在工程领域中，存在大量的机械驱动研究，并且已经确定了湍流结构和相关的热量和质量传递的细节。这些结果中的大多数还没有在海冰建模的背景下考虑，预计将导致一系列波浪水池和现场实验的设计。
