Sampling of Snow and Ice on Lakes
Three years' data, based on unusually large random samples, are combined to characterize the late February snow, white ice, and black ice cover of Elizabeth Lake, Labrador. Similar spatial patterns were found to exist between years with central and marginal locations tending to exhibit consiste...
