Ice Thickness Topography Study - Beaufort Sea
Principal Investigator: Melling, Humfrey
Licensed Year(s): 1996 1995 1994 1993 1992 1991 1990
Summary: As part of an on-going study, sonar instruments will be recovered through the ice at three locations on the continental shelf that is located north and east of Tuktoyaktuk. The sonars provide information about the motion, thickness and ridging of sea ice. A survey of seawater properties, including temperature and salinity, will also be conducted at selected sites....

Beaufort Sea Ice Motion Programme - Mesoscale Flow Features Study
Principal Investigator: Melling, Humfrey
Licensed Year(s): 1988 1987
Summary: To deploy 11 drifting buoys to improve description of oceanic flow variations on scales of 5-50 km over the Mackenzie shelf of the southern Beaufort Sea; to investigate the relationship between such variations, seafloor topography and shelf water baroclinicity; to estimate the uncertainty which such fluctuations introduce into deterministic models of pack-ice drift...
