ICE; The ice that forms anywhere, say a pond or a lake is less dense than the water it may be floating on. To be less dense than the water below it begs the fact that in an ice state it has expanded within a given volume.
If ice was slightly less dense than the water it floats upon it would sink perhaps even to the bottom of the lake and if the wintering period was long enough and cold enough the water volume
would be converted into one large ice mass.
This would upset the fish underneath.
The myth of breaking a tractor crankcase after
all freezing action and achieving maximum stress
during unthawing receives a very low grade.
A very high grade is awarded for getting lots of
threads on this topic.
For extra credit perhaps someone can explain why
such a small volume of ice of an iceberg is evident above sea level while the lions share is submerged?
If our planet is actually heating up from greenhouse gases effects, maybe some icebergs will float by the eastern seaboard or Pacific seaboard for some onsite measurements.
FREEZE AND BUST, THAW AND FIX.
