An analytical study for predicting incipient motion velocity of sediments under ice cover [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
This study investigates the critical impact of incipient sediment motion on sediment transport estimation and riverbed evolution prediction. In this research, we examine the effects of ice cover on the vertical distribution of flow velocity, establishing

Ice velocity in the Yellow River bends using unmanned aerial vehicle imagery [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Ice velocity is a critical parameter in river ice monitoring, playing a vital role in analyzing ice blockages, the freeze-up process, and ice jam locations. It provides essential references for freeze-up forecasting.

Forecasting River Ice Breakup and Ice Jam Flooding

open access: yesHydrology
Mechanical breakup of river ice cover and associated ice jam flooding is a major concern for riverine communities in cold regions. The ability to forecast breakup ice jams is essential for river ice management. Numerous studies on forecasting breakup ice

Convolutional neural network and long short-term memory models for ice-jam predictions [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2022
In cold regions, ice jams frequently result in severe flooding due to a rapid rise in water levels upstream of the jam. Sudden floods resulting from ice jams threaten human safety and cause damage to properties and infrastructure.

Accumulation and evolution of ice jams influenced by different ice discharge: An experimental analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Ice jam, a unique hydrological phenomenon of rivers in cold regions, is a major cause of ice flooding. There are many different kinds of damage that can result from ice jams: e.g., blockage of the water flow, rising water levels that can flood farmland ...

A comprehensive field investigation of the dynamic break-up processes on the Chaudière River, Quebec, Canada

open access: yesHydrology Research, 2023
The Chaudière River in Quebec, Canada, is well known for its frequent ice jam flooding events. As part of a larger watershed research program, an extensive field campaign has been carried out during the 2018–2019 and 2019–2020 winter seasons to quantify ...

An assessment of danger during spring floods and ice jams in the north of European Russia [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2015
Heavy ice jams during spring floods are common on rivers in the northern European Russia. Climate changes of the last decades have caused significant changes in the ice regime of rivers.

River predisposition to ice jams: a simplified geospatial model [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2017
Floods resulting from river ice jams pose a great risk to many riverside municipalities in Canada. The location of an ice jam is mainly influenced by channel morphology.

Development of an ice-jam flood forecasting modelling framework for freeze-up/winter breakup

open access: yesHydrology Research, 2023
River ice-jams can create severe flooding along many rivers in cold regions. While ice-jams often form during the spring breakup, the mid-winter breakup can cause ice-jamming and flooding.
