Effects of commercial vessel passage in narrow channels with and without ice cover / John G. lyon, Donald C. Williams, Kevin G. Flannigan.

Title: Effects of commercial vessel passage in narrow channels with and without ice cover / John G. lyon, Donald C. Williams, Kevin G. Flannigan.
Author(s): lyon, John G.
Williams, Donald C.
Flannigan, Kevin G.
Date: 1994.
In: Journal of Cold Regions Engineering. (1994.), Vol. 8(2) (1994)
Abstract: Two models were used to simulate these effects. They were calibrated for local conditions (St Mary's River--Lake Nicolet, MI) using measurements of effects of vessel passage conducted dueing ice-on and open-water navigation seasons. Results of model simulations compared well with verification data from vessel passgaes. It was found that, although navigation during extended-season operation would probably increase drawdown in narrowest channels and increase deposition in areas of river near turns in navigation courses, suspended sediment levels and rates of deposition would still be much less than those found during open-water season.
