Description: CRREL Report
Abstract: Hydraulic modeling of ice jams can be used to predict jam location, stages, thickness, and other characteristics. Knowledge of the range and variability of hydraulics and physical properties affecting ice jams is necessary to reduce the uncertainty associated with such modeling. This report provides an overview of the processes involved in ice jam hydraulics and discusses properties important in these processes.
