Abstract: This paper presents generic equations and analyses of a cylindrical pontoon boom's capacity to retain ice. The presentation arises out of actual booms deployed on the St. Lawrence River downstream of Montreal but are valid ...

Abstract: Potential errors in calculated vertical suspended sediment concentration profiles in river flows carrying mixed sediments are investigated. These profiles are usually obtained through application of a standard ‘diffusion ...

Abstract: The geomatics engineering contributions to continuous three-dimensional monitoring of ice sheet in a dam reservoir is presented in this paper. A total station robot was used to monitor the displacement of several probes ...

Abstract: This paper presents a new model (Q2D) for the velocity distribution in a channel cross section for use in estimating discharge. It describes the model and its theoretical basis and presents the results of a case study. The ...

Abstract: This paper presents a new vertical 1D finite-element model to simulate the growth and decay of an ice cover (columnar ice, snow ice, slush, and snow cover consolidation) over a winter season in a partially mixed mesotidal ...

Abstract: In this article, we quantify the effects of a standing ice cover on the hydrodynamics of a mesotidal estuary. The Portneuf Estuary, Québec, is
