Name of the category[edit]
Just for the record (or in case somebody wants to write an article for Wikipedia): I've termed this "Ball ice" instead of the perhaps more nearby "Ice balls" for two reasons:
- Ice balls in the sense of "balls made of ice" can be formed by other means than the phenomenon this category is about.
- It is used not only by Marshall 1966[1]; the term is also used in the Academic Press Dictionary of Science and Technology[2] and Journal of Glaciology[3]
