This book exposes practitioners and students to the theory and application of river and lake ice processes to gain a better understanding of these processes for modelling and forecasting. It focuses on the following processes of the surface water ice: freeze-up, ice cover thickening, ice cover breakup and ice jamming.
Chapter 1: Introduction Red River Dauphin River Chapter 2: Ice physics & mechanics physical properties of ice creep and fracture of ice Chapter 3: Freeze-up processes Freeze-up processes Impacts of flow regulation on river freeze-up Chapter 4: Exercise - river cooling and ice cover extent 0 DegreesC isotherm ice cover length Chapter 5: Monitoring ice covers tracking ice cover characteristics ice strength and ice maps Chapter 6: Exercise - characterising river ice types processing remote sensing data extracting ice types from satellite imagery Chapter 7: Breakup & ice jam processes tracking breakup along Peace and Slave rivers impacts of flow regulation on ice cover breakup Chapter 8: Exercise - equilibrium ice jams & javes equilibrium ice jam staging surge velocity and staging of ice jam release waves Chapter 9: Ice jam flood risk assessment and mapping flood risk = hazard vulnerability ice jam flood risk assessment and mapping of the town of Peace River
