Abstract

Glaze sensors are designed for diagnostics of glaze-frost states and make it possible to measure the freezing temperature and concentration of solutions in the form of film deposits coating a sensor surface. The physical basis of the operational principles of glaze sensors allows them to be considered as an efficient analyzer of the state of the environment and to be included in the information system of environmental protection that operates as an alarm system of the glaze situation and as a monitor of soil and water area salinization.
