    Description / Table of Contents: In this study a method for making long-range forecasts of freeze-up dates in rivers is developed. The method requires the initial water temperature at an upstream station, the long-range air temperature forecast, the predicted mean flow velocity in the river reach, and water temperature response parameters. The water temperature response parameters can be either estimated from the surface heat exchange coefficient and the average flow depth or determined empirically from recorded air and water temperature data. The method is applied to the St. Lawrence River between Kingston, Ontario, and Massena, New York, and is shown to be capable of accurately forecasting freeze-up. Originator-supplied keywords include: Ice formation, and River ice.

    Description / Table of Contents: A mathematical model is described that is used to determine the maximum ice conveyance capacity of a river channel. Based upon this model, computer programs were developed that enable the ice discharge to be calculated for steady-state flow conditions. For rivers that have uniform flow, the maximum ice-conveying capacity can be described with a simple function expressed in terms of the size of the ice fragments, channel geometry, and the flow of water in the river. For nonuniform flows, the computer program determines the elevation profile of the surface layer in addition to other flow characteristics, such as the velocity and surface concentration of the ice fragments. The location along this surface profile where the ice conveyance capacity becomes less than the upstream supply is determined and is considered to be the position where a surface ice jam or ice bridge will be formed.

    Notes: : Winter heat budget and frazil ice production in the St. Lawrence River between the Ogdensburg-Prescott Boom and the Moses-Saunders Power Dam are analyzed. Contributions of each heat exchange component, and spatial distributions of heat exchange rates are calculated for three typical winters. Based on the calculated heat budget, the amount and distribution of frazil ice generated in the study reach is analyzed. The result of this study indicates that the thermal energy contained in the river water flowing into the study reach is a dominate factor in the heat budget analysis. The heat flux from the channel bottom accounts for an important portion of the total heat budget during the ice covered period.

    Notes: : The rates of ice production due to surface heat loss in open water reaches of the St. Lawrence River, between the Ogdensburg-Prescott Boom and the Moses-Saunders Dam, are analyzed for the past 20 winters. Simple statistical parameters for ice production rates and air temperature are determined. Regression analyses for relationships between surface heat loss rates and freezing degree days indicate that an excellent linear correlation exists between these two variables. The study also shows that it is important to consider other heat exchange components, such as the bed heat flux and viscous dissipation, in the total ice production analysis for the river reach.

    Notes: : The effect of ice cover on vertical transfer is examined based on the Reynolds' analogy and composite logarithmic velocity distributions. A finite difference scheme is used to predict concentration profiles in a two-dimensional channel. Comparisons made between the ice-covered condition and the ice-free condition show that considerable reduction in mixing capacity of the channel is caused by the ice cover.

    Notes: : Two-dimensional solutions for transient dispersion of nonconservative dispersants in uniform flow resulting from a transverse line source of variable concentration are obtained using multiple integral transformations. In general, the solutions are in integral forms, which can be efficiently evaluated using Filon's quadratures. Examples are presented for cases of practical interest. Applicability of the solution for modeling dispersion in natural river channel where the distribution of flows across the channel are nonuniform is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract Sediment transport and retardation processes within a porous media are modeled using a simple conceptual model. The actual porous media is represented as a regular network of pores. The flow in a single, two-dimensional network laying in the vertical plane is assumed to be representative of the flow in porous media as a whole. The only mechanism for sediment retardation considered here is the settling of sediment in horizontal pores. Assuming laminar flow conditions in each pore, analytical expressions for the conductivity and the rate of sediment deposition in a steady flow are obtained for the case of ‘perfectly regular’ network, in which all pore diameters and lengths are equal. The effect of randomness in pore diameters is investigated in numerical experiments on ‘randomized networks’. The results of the steady sediment flow analysis are applied to the oscillatory-flow problem in a quasi-steady fashion. A quantitative expression for the volume of sediment deposited in one oscillation cycle is obtained. It is beleived that this simple conceptual model can be used to explain wave-induced sediment enrichment in Arctic coastal ice covers.

    Notes: The relationship between the shear stress and strain rate of a mixture consisting of solid particles suspended in a Newtonian fluid depends upon the physical properties of the mixture as well as kinematic features of the flow. Functional relationships for rheological properties of mixtures are derived and compared to measured results obtained by previous investigators.

    Description: A nonlinear analysis of the interaction between a water wave and a floating ice cover in river channels is presented. The one-dimensional weakly nonlinear equation for shallow water wave propagation in a uniform channel with a floating ice cover is derived. The ice cover is assumed to be a thin uniform elastic plate. The weakly nonlinear equation is a fifth-order KdV equation. Analytical solutions of the nonlinear periodic wave equation are obtained. These solutions show that the shape, wavelength and celerity of the nonlinear waves depend on the wave amplitude. The wave celerity is slightly smaller than the open water wave celerity. The wavelength decreases as the wave amplitude increases. Based on these solutions the fracture of the ice cover is analysed. The spacing between transverse cracks varies from 50 m to a few hundred metres with the corresponding wave amplitude varying from 0.2 to 0.8 m, depending on the thickness and strength of the cover. These results agree well with limited field observations.
