This paper presents an investigation of all documented ice jam release events for the Athabasca River at Fort McMurray, Alberta. A review of the historical records indicates that release waves in excess of 3 m and propagation speeds of 4–5 m/s are

At present, most river flood forecasts are conducted using a two-step procedure. First, flood routing is conducted, normally using hydrological models. The resulting flood peaks are then converted to water level forecasts using a steady flow hydrauli

At present, the only truly accurate method of determining discharge under ice-affected conditions is by direct measurement. However, this is a costly undertaking that places technicians at personal risk. Because of this, the Water Survey of Canada of

At present, the only accurate means of determining discharge under ice-affected conditions is by direct measurement, a costly undertaking that places field staff at personal risk. Consequently, winter discharge hydrographs are often based on interpol

The ability to predict the response of an ice sheet to long-term loading is important in many situations. In northern regions, ice sheets have been used as construction platforms, drilling rig platforms, airfields, parking lots, and festival platform

This paper presents a proposed modeling approach which uses unsteady flow hydraulic modeling for both flood routing and flood level determination. The onerous data requirements of hydraulic models in the flood routing application are overcome through

In modeling dam-break floods in natural channels, the practicing engineer must decide whether to use a one-dimensional (1D) or a two-dimensional (2D) numerical model. Here in the examination of what might be considered a 2D problem, it is clearly ill

Finite element schemes for hyperbolic systems are applied to the St. Venant equations for one-dimensional, unsteady, open channel flow. The comparative performances of the characteristic-dissipative-Galerkin, Taylor-Galerkin and least squares finite

This paper describes the application of the characteristic-dissipative-Galerkin method to steady and unsteady open channel flow problems. The robust performance of this new finite element scheme is demonstrated in modeling the propagation of ice jam
