A brief review of the numerical modelling of ice jam flooding and studies relevant to coastal communities of Ontario's Far North

Coastal communities of Ontario’s Far North located near the shores of James and Hudson Bay are prone to ice jam flooding. The ability to forecast flooding is required for effective and optimized emergency planning and the reduction of threats and costs. The present report is a brief review of numeri...
