Ice climatology in the Beaufort Sea / W.E. Markham, Ice Climatology, Dept. of the Environment.: En3-6/26E-PDF

"This report consists of four separate studies concerned mainly with ice climatology in the southern Beaufort Sea. The first, based on a study of twenty years of historical ice charts, describes the variation of ice concentration with the time of year for six regions with different ice regimes. The second describes the motion of individual ice floes relative to the wind. The third describes a reasonably accurate method for predicting the gross features of the northward retreat of the polar pack ice in the Beaufort Sea and the fourth is an examination of the size of ice floes within various ice concentration ranges near the edge of the polar pack"--Summary.
