Calculating the Ice Thickness on the Rivers of the North of the Asian Part of Russia

  • Published:
Power Technology and Engineering Aims and scope

The spatial and temporal variability of the maximum annual ice thickness on the rivers located north of latitude 60° north in the Asian part of Russia is considered. Ice thickness values of 1% exceedance probability were obtained. The possibility of using the conventional method to calculate the ice thickness on unexplored rivers in modern climatic conditions is assessed.
