Because these simple wooden structures could not cope with the strong ice drift in the winter, they frequently had to be replaced.

The marker at the Geographic Pole is shifted about 30 feet each year to compensate for ice drift.

The ice drift is relatively short.

The ice drift was slowly moving the camp in the direction of the island, but as yet there was insufficient daylight to attempt the march.

Other techniques were used to measure turbulence and the effect of salt and heat and ice drift on the water.

Ice rafting may be used for analysis of ice drift pattern by matching the rafted sediment with its origin.

Large, relatively intact plates of ice drift toward the northeast from the thin piece of shelf that still stretches toward the nearby island.

They then changed direction towards northern Svalbard; movement was slowed down by ice drift and by the craggy surface of the pack ice.

This peculiar feature of arctic stony rivers with local name "bechevnick" is being formed during every seasonal period of ice drift and river inundation at spring.

Drawing on new knowledge of Arctic Ocean weather, currents and ice drift, he concluded that those factors and navigational mistakes had left Admiral Peary 30 to 60 miles from the pole.

On the morning of April 20, the party journeyed somewhat less than four miles to account for ice drift, and signalled a United States Air Force C135 weather reconnaissance aircraft using a handheld radio.

Working Group on Monitoring and Assessment The focus is establishing and implementing joint programmes for monitoring the conditions of transboundary waters, including floods and ice drift, as well as transboundary impacts.

Seasonal ice drift in the Sea of Okhotsk by the northern coast of Hokkaidō, Japan has become a tourist attraction of this area with harsh climate, and is one of the 100 Soundscapes of Japan.

It was thought she may have been carried by the polar ice drift until she broke free on the other side of the Arctic (like the Fram), but this seems unlikely now that items have been found on Franz Josef Land.

Patterns of ice drift in the Arctic Ocean, which some critics said would have put Peary more than 55 miles west of the pole, appeared to be offset by a subsequent eastward drift noted in the logs of some expedition members, the study found.

Drawing on new knowledge of Arctic Ocean weather, currents and ice drift, Wally Herbert, a British polar explorer, concluded that a combination of these factors and navigational mistakes could have put Peary as much as 30 to 60 miles off course in his historic quest.

You can also compare it with some of the previous ice drift expeditions through the arctic ice (Fram by Norwegian explorers Fridtjof Nansen, Otto Sverdrup, Oscar Wisting, and Roald Amundsen between 1893 and 1896 as the first one).
