Abstract: At the onset of winter in cold regions, border ice may form along the banks of a river and grow outward toward the center of the channel. This type of transient ice process is not well understood, and current empirical ...

Abstract: River ice complicates river hydraulics and morphodynamics by adding a new boundary layer to the top of the flow. This boundary layer affects the velocity distribution throughout the depth due to increased flow resistance, ...

Abstract: Flow control programs on regulated rivers can improve winter flow conveyance for hydropower operations. On the Upper Nelson River, station flows at Jenpeg Generating Station are reduced during freeze-up to promote formation ...
