Brief communication: Sampling c-axes distributions from the eigenvalues of ice fabric orientation tensors

Martin Rongen

Abstract. For simulation purposes involving different realizations of ice fabrics, it can be necessary to generate arbitrarily large samples of c-axes based on the second-order orientation tensor, a commonly used descriptive statistics provided in publications of ice core measurements. This paper describes a sampling technique based on the combination of a vertical girdle and a single maximum Watson distributions.
