Objectif(s): The researchers will continue their monitoring of ice formation and breakup at the Mackenzie River crossing near Fort Providence with the objective of developing a better understanding of the processes associated with freezeup and breakup, with the ultimate objective of developing a forecasting tool.
Description du projet: 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.
