Icicles on the KTI Tech College Greenland Building in Nuuk

Icicles on the KTI Tech College Greenland Building in Nuuk

A red wooden building with ice buildup on the eaves, photographed at sunset in late March. The "ribbed" texture on these icicles is a result of thin films of water freezing as they flow down the existing ice. This indicates a cycle where the building's heat or the afternoon sun caused a melt, which then froze rapidly in the sub-zero Arctic air.
