Abstract
As part of the US Department of Energy (DOE) funded Igiugig Village Council (IVC)-led project, the University of Alaska Fairbanks(UAF) will perform a study of over winter ice conditions in the Kvichak River at Igiugig, Alaska. UAF will deploy a mooring equipped with sensors to measure water column and surface ice velocities (a 1200 kHZ Teledyne RDI Workhorse Sentinel Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler) as well water column frazil ice and surface ice thickness (an ASL Environmental Sciences, Inc. Shallow Water Ice Profiler, or SWIP, owned by ORPC, Inc.). These sensors will be deployed by the first week of November 2016 and will be retrieved in May 2017.
University of Alaska, Fairbanks River Ice Study Plan is located in Alaska, United States of America.
