Ice Scour on the Northern Continental Shelf of Alaska.

There appears to be considerably less ice scouring inside the ten fathom curve than outside. The decrease is in frequency, width and length, however, there is little decrease in relief of scour. The ten fathom curve acts as a barrier sill to the relatively constant draft ice islands. Although they a...
