Includes bibliographical references (pages 8-11). "This report summarizes in simple form, the predictive capabilities pertaining to the regime of ice in rivers. Starting with the cooling of water in the fall, basic relationships are presented describing the formation of ice, its transport and eventual accumulation into ice covers, thermal ice growth in the winter and decay in the spring. Break-up processes and recent developments in forecasting are described next. Ice jamming during breakup, including surges from ice jam release is the final topic"-- Abstract.
