Need to remove ice features from the force profiles when estimating microstructure.

Assumptions

Sharp and decrease in force between snow and discrete ice features
Typically < 1 cm in thickness (find literature to support, from personal exp.)
Should not interpolate to fill as the thermodynamic conditions are often contrasting between sides (ie ice conducts heat and can limit vapour transport).

Added some tools to start work on this here

Need to test it on more ice features but seems to work well on sea ice.
