Environmental aspects of river ice / editors, T.D. Prowse and N.C. Gridley.: En36-513/5E-PDF
"Recognizing the lack of comprehensive information on river ice environmental problems, the National Research Council of Canada's Subcommittee on Hydraulics of Ice Covered Rivers recommended in 1988 that a Task Force be form to investigate the environmental aspects of river ice. The Task Force has assembled this state-of-the-art report in order to document current knowledge and develop recommendations for research. … This state-of-the-art report comprises contributions by Task Force members and is organized under three major chapters: physical, chemical and biological. The editors have re-arranged original material and inserted new text to enhance the degree of coverage, to maximize consistency among authors' presentations, and to better link the various sections. A subsequent publication "Proceedings of the Workshop on Environmental Aspects of River Ice" will be published following the release of this science report at the workshop of the same name"--Introduction, pages 1-2.
