This book provides a review of mechanical ice drillingtechnology, including the design, parameters, and performance of various toolsand drills for making holes in snow, firn and ice. The material presents the historicaldevelopment of ice drilling tools and devices from the first experience takenplace more than 170 years ago to the present day and focuses on the modernvision of ice drilling technology. It is illustrated with numerous pictures, many of them published for the first time. This book is intended for specialistsin ice core sciences, drilling engineers, glaciologists, and can be useful forhigh-school students and other readers who are very interested in engineeringand cold regions technology.
