"The Yukon Ice Seasonality Experiment (YISEXI was initiated to obtain a better understanding of physical processes affecting the ice cover on northern lake and river systems. ... This report on the third year (1985/86) of the YISEX study documents meteorological, hydrological, and ice conditions, investigates the effects of specific ice conditions (e.g., leads, ice fronts, frazil deposits, and ice ripples) on river hydraulics, and introduces a new method for the measurement of river discharge in winter. A summary comparison of the three winters is presented."
