Question 1 of 27070

Q

"Ice blink" is __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• Ice blink vs. water sky – know which one is associated with ice and which with open water • How clouds can reflect light from surfaces below them (ice vs. dark water) • The visual appearance (color/brightness) mariners look for when navigating near ice

💭 Think About

• Look at each choice and ask: does this describe a reflection from ice or from open water? • Think about what color/brightness you would expect over a bright, icy surface versus over dark, open water. • Compare the terms: which answer choice sounds more like what you’d expect near sea ice or pack ice?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options describe open water (these relate more to 'water sky') • Check which option specifically suggests a bright or pale glare consistent with reflection from ice/snow • Eliminate any choice that clearly refers to the visual effect caused by dark water, not ice
