Lake and river ice in Canada / Terry Prowse.
Title: | Lake and river ice in Canada / Terry Prowse. |
Author(s): | Prowse, Terry. |
Date: | 2012. |
Publisher: | Oxford: Wiley-Blackwell |
In: | Changing cold environments : a Canadian perspective. (2012.), |
Abstract: | Describes: physical ice regimes - mechanism of ice formation and destruction in different conditions (laminar/turbulent flow, wind, ice-jam, etc.); spatial patterns of freeze-up and break-up; and significant physical, ecological and socio-economic effects, including ice impact and scour, flooding, and ice road transportation. Describes role of lake and river ice in climate system; climate controls; historical trends and climate linkages (paleohistorical, spatial and temporal patterns, and role of atmospheric teleconnections in phenology changes). Discusses projections and implications of ice regime change (climate feedbacks, hydrologic effects, ecological effects, socioeconomic impacts and adaptation options) |
