Grease ice

Grease ice is a type of ice that forms under specific conditions in cold environments, typically found in polar regions or near ice-covered bodies of water. It is characterized by a thin, slushy layer that consists of small ice crystals and water, often resembling a viscous, greasy surface. Grease ice can develop when small ice crystals begin to coalesce and are mixed with water, creating a surface that appears shiny and can have a somewhat liquid-like texture.
