Coastal ice dynamics / William M. Sackinger.
Title: | Coastal ice dynamics / William M. Sackinger. |
Author(s): | Sackinger, William M. |
Date: | 1988. |
Publisher: | New York: American Society of Civil Engineers |
In: | Arctic coastal processes and slope protection design : a state of the practice report prepared by the Technical Council on Cold Regions Engineering of the American Society of Engineers. (1988.), |
Abstract: | Dominant force affecting ice motion is from tidal current, but in coastal regions of low tidal excursions, wind forces often play major role. Ice edge can retreat seaward, even in winter when driven by offshore winds. Moving pack ice will experience complex internal stresses and fracture patterns due to local nonuniformity of water drag and Coriolis effects. |
