Prediction of short-term ice edge drift / Mona El-Tahan, G. Warbanski.
Title: | Prediction of short-term ice edge drift / Mona El-Tahan, G. Warbanski. |
Author(s): | El-Tahan, Mona. Warbanski, G. |
Date: | 1987. |
Publisher: | New York: American Society of Mechanical Engineers |
In: | Proceedings of the Sixth (1987) International Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering Symposium, presented at the Sixth (1987) International Symposium & Exhibit on Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering, Houston, Texas, March 1-6, 1987. Vol. 4. (1987.), |
Abstract: | Based on simple model to predict ice-floe drift. Considers wind forces, wind-generated currents, residual currents, Coriolis acceleration and sea-surface slope. Performance of model evaluated by comparing actual forecasts with observed ice edges during 1986 winter season. Model shown to be useful in forecasting drift of pack-ice edge in support of drilling operations of Grand Banks of Newfoundland. Accuracy of model discussed. |
