ARCTIC Modification by an Ice Cover of the Tide in

ABSTRACT. The tide in Hudson Bay-James Bay is mainly semidiurnal. Admittance calculations between a reference signal and the water level observed at some gauging sites reveal that in the interior of Hudson Bay-James Bay the tide occurs earlier and its amplitude is reduced after the formation of an i...
