The phrase "amount of freezing" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when discussing the quantity or extent of freezing conditions, such as in weather reports or scientific contexts.
Example: "The amount of freezing overnight caused several delays in the morning commute."
Alternatives: "degree of freezing" or "extent of freezing".
Salt partition and diffusion coefficients increase monotonically with the amount of freezing water in the hydrophilic domains, suggesting that the state of water in the phase-separated block copolymers is an important factor influencing their salt uptake and transport properties.
A freak blizzard (unofficially named "Hannah" by the Grand Forks Herald) had dumped a large amount of freezing rain and snow on the Red River Valley on the weekend of April 5 , 1997
This optimal threshold (number of pixels) to judge freezing was determined by adjusting it to the amount of freezing measured by human observation.
As expected, prior to the re-exposure to the recall tone, the mice had a very low amount of freezing (Fig. 1F and 1H; see the top blue bar Fig. 5A).
Additionally, the amount of freezing displayed by the RFE rats during the entire S-R pair-testing session was positively correlated with the magnitude of USV the RFE rats emitted during the episode of fear experience (Fig. 2F).
The confinement to each environment demonstrated that animals with a high avoidance of the bright side displayed substantial amount of freezing behavior when forcefully exposed to the bright chamber.
Its density of about 1.59 grams per cubic cm is consistent with a composition of roughly equal parts water ice and rock, perhaps intermixed with a small amount of frozen methane.
Since Q-RT PCR can be performed with as little as 100 ng RNA, the corresponding amount of frozen tissue is easily obtained even with 14G or 16G fine-needle biopsies of breast tumours (O'Flynn et al, 2010), although a frozen tissue workflow has to be organised.
Interestingly, the numbers of ensemble patterns retrieved were also highly correlated with the amounts of freezing during contextual recall.
However, there is a still significant, but lower, correlation between the reactivation numbers and the amounts of freezing (r = 0.5851, p<0.05).
Consecutively, fear memory was increased as was seen by higher amounts of freezing to both cue and context compared to control mice (Brinks et al. 2009).
