Yukon River freeze-up and break-up study / synthesis prepared by R. Gerard, PhD., P.Eng. ; for Inland Waters Directorate, Environment Canada.: En36-538/4E-PDF
"This report describes results of "Yukon River Freeze-up and Break-up Studies" carried out jointly by Canada, Yukon and British Columbia as part of the Yukon River Basin Study. The report discusses general characteristics of the Yukon River basin as they relate to the river ice regime, describes the salient ice processes characteristic of the area, reviews historical information on the ice regime and presents the findings of surveys that were undertaken during 1982 and 1983 to monitor the break-up and freeze-up conditions between Lake Laberge and the Yukon/Alaska border. It also discusses generally the effects on the ice regime that might occur as a result of future river regulation for hydro-electric generation purposes"--Abstract.
