The objective of this research is to study ice processes on the Hay River in order to develop computer models to predict them, addressing local issues (effects of berming and channel infilling on ice jams) and potentially providing flood warning tools, as well as exploring the impacts of development and climate variability on the frequency and severity of ice jams.
The progression of river ice ...

The researchers will continue their monitoring of ice formation and breakup at the Mackenzie River crossing near Fort Providence. Data will be collected on water levels, river velocity, ice thickness and strength, and snow depth. This information will contribute to our knowledge of ice formation and breakup at this crossing, with a goal of predicting freezeup and breakup events....
