Ice Lens Formation is a physical process in cryospheric science whereby localized layers of ice accumulate within snowpack or firn as a result of vapor diffusion and liquid water refreezing, distinguished from other phase-change phenomena by its preferential growth perpendicular to the direction of heat flux and its role in stratigraphic layering within glaciers and ice sheets.
