regelation

When the attachments of pressed ice are broken, the continuity of the mass is restored by the regelation of the new contiguous surfaces.

Mr. James Thomson had referred regelation to the cold produced by the liquefaction of the pressed ice; but in the above experiment all pressure is not only taken away, but is replaced by tension.

Indeed, it was new welded by regelation since the sun’s rays had disappeared.

It is this same principle of regelation which enables men to cross snow bridges in safety.

Then again, what I have described as 'intrusive layers of blue ice' was a remarkable feature; one could imagine that these layers represent surfaces which have been transformed by regelation under hot sun and wind.
