Ice mélange is commonly the result of an ice calving event where ice breaks off the edge of a glacier. Ice mélange affects many of the Earth's processes including glacier calving, ocean wave generation and frequency, generation of seismic waves, atmosphere and ocean interactions, and tidewater glacier systems. Ice mélange is possibly the largest granular material on Earth, and is quasi-2-dimensional. Etymology Mélange or melange means "mixture" and originates from |

Ice mélange has also been referred to as "sikkussaq" or "sikkusak", which is a Greenlandic word meaning packed by ice or surrounded by sea ice. The word is derived from the word "siku", which means sea ice. Influence on fjord seiches Fjord seiches are created by the calving and capsize of large icebergs and mélange movement. It has been shown that such events create long-period, large-scale surface gravity waves and seiches. The presence of ice mélange slows down the propagation of both external and internal seiches and introduces band gaps where energy propagation (group velocity) |

If energy is introduced into the fjord within the period range covered by a band gap, it will remain trapped as a fading oscillatory mode near its source, thus contributing to localized energy dissipation and ice mélange fragmentation.
Understanding the connection between seiches and ice mélange is important for several reasons. First, seiches cause commotion within the mass of ice mélange that typically fills the fjord, thereby causing further break-up and capsize of the sea ice. Second, their relationship determines how the fjord will respond to forcing by the external ocean beyond. Third, seiches offer a means of quantifying the |

Jakobshavn Isbræ, Greenland The Jakobshavn Isbræ, or Jakobshavn Glacier, has a large drainage basin and is one of Greenland’s largest and fastest-flowing outlet glaciers. Large calving produces a long floating ice tongue that rapidly melts in spring suggesting that the tongue is formed by a dense pack of calved icebergs and is an ice mélange. Through visual observations of Jakobshavn Isbræ’s proglacial ice mélange it can be determined that the mélange forms |

The motion of the tabular fragments is a rigid body rotation about a vertical axis that is driven by velocity shear within the mélange. The role of the rift-filling mélange may be to bind tabular ice-shelf fragments to the main ice shelf before they calve. This suggests two possible mechanisms by which climate could influence tabular iceberg calving. First, non-uniform distributions in oceanic and atmospheric temperature may determine where the mélange melts and, thus, the location of the iceberg-calving margin. Second, melting or weakening of ice mélange as a consequence of |

Ice-shelf rifting, a long-term process that culminates in tabular iceberg release, is strongly influenced by sea ice and other types of ice, which fill the rift. The eventual detachment of these fragments as icebergs thus appears to be determined in part by the dynamics of the mélange which fills rifts.

The Atlanta Constitution in 1896 grandly described Inman Park:
High up above the city, where the purest breezes and the brightest sunshine drove away the germs of disease, and where nature had lavished her best gifts, the gentlemen who conceived the thought of Inman Park found the locality above all others which they desired. It was to be a place of homes, of pretty homes, green lawns, and desirable inhabitants. And all save those who would make desirable residents have been excluded. ...

Like new developments throughout the United States at the time, but in stark contrast to the attitudes prevalent in the neighborhood today, Inman Park was conceived of and promoted as a segregated community.
Moreland Park was by contrast developed as a more traditional, incremental building of sub-divisions as opposed to the grand plan for Inman Park proper. Decline The arrival of the automobile allowed upper class Atlantans to live in suburbs farther north from downtown workplaces, such as |

As the Islamic community became more powerful, some Jewish midrash about Ishmael was modified so that he was portrayed more negatively in order to challenge the Islamic view that Ishmael, and thus the Muslims, were the favored descendants of Abraham. This became the genealogy according to Jewish sources and the Bible, in contrast with the genealogy of Arabs according to Muslims. The development of Islam created pressure for Islam to be somehow different from Judaism and Christianity, and accordingly, Ishmael's lineage to Arabs was stressed.

Ishmael's descendants became the Northern Arabs known as the Musta'riba or the "Arabized Arabs."
