The effects of flow regulation on freeze-up regime : Peace River, Taylor to the Slave River / prepared for the Northern River Basins Study under project 1423-C1 by D.D. Andres. : R71-49/3-122E-PDF

"This report has reviewed the processes by which an ice cover forms on large regulated and non- regulated rivers. Explicit equations and algorithms have been presented that quantify these processes. Work that had been undertaken previously on the Peace River was also described to provide a framework for the calibration of these algorithms for the Peace River in both its regulated and non-regulated condition. The significant theoretical advances that were made include the development of a procedure to forecast freeze-up on a non-regulated river and the derivation of a stability relationship that uses both air temperature and discharge to determine whether a juxtaposed or consolidated ice cover will form. The latter development is important to characterize the type of ice cover that will occur on the Peace River under regulated conditions"--Report summary.
