NWRI contribution ; 87-19 "February 1987". Digitized edition from print [produced by Environment and Climate Change Canada]. Includes bibliographical references. "This is the fifth report from a continuing program of annual monitoring of ice processes aimed at developing solutions related to ice-jam flooding during breakup. The data presented in this report support methods developed at NWRI to predict the onset of breakup and the release of ice jams in the upper portion of the study reach. The breakup process is more complex in the lower portion of the study reach due to the strong influence of Lake St. Clair on the water levels. Formulation of analogous predictive methods for this reach requires development of new knowledge on the interaction between an ice jam and the intact ice cover downstream. Ice jam stages measured throughout the study reach support the use of an existing theory"--Management perspective.
