Swedish researchers denied a long idea that the cold slowed down chemical reactions, and explained why Arctic rivers were so huge taking an orange.
A new study of Swedish scientists from the UMO University revealed that ice is more effective than liquid water, releasing iron from minerals, which can explain the color of the Arctic rivers. New Atlas reported it.
In recent years, north rivers have noticed massive “orange” associated with the whispering of the permafrost and the release of large amounts of iron from mineral deposits. Such water contains less oxygen, increased acidity and threatens fish and other living beings.
Experiments showed that at a temperature of -10 ° C, ice emitting more steel than water at +4 ° C. As the co-author explained between ice crystals, the microscopic “pockets” of liquid forms, acting as reactor-concentrate substances and became excessively acidic, accelerating the reaction to the minerals.
Researchers studied the getet mineral combined with organic acid and found that the most active iron was released accurately during freezing cylves and scams. At the same time, fresh and brackish water improves the process, while the sea – prevents it.
According to the first set of Angelo Pio Sebaali’s author, with the rising temperature on the planet, freezing cycling cycles becomes more frequent, which means that lakes will enter more steel, which can seriously affect water quality and ecosystem in large regions.
We remind you, earlier it was reported that Martian glaciers were almost completely out of pure ice.
