Research Projects

Our river ice research group is presently working on a number of projects both in the field and in the laboratory. Much of our field work takes place on the Athabasca River near Fort McMurray (Alberta) and the Hay River near Hay River (Northwest Territories).

Each of our projects are geared towards advancing current knowledge in river ice processes and hydraulics through:

• field studies and monitoring methods
• numerical modeling, and
• experimental studies of river ice processes or characteristics

You can find detailed information about our current river ice research here, including details of our field studies on the Hay River, NWT.
