Freeze‐Up Ice Jams and Channel Hydraulics Cause Hazardous Open Water Zones Within Winter Ice Cover on the Kuskokwim and Yukon Rivers and Their Tributaries

Abstract Timing and completeness of freeze‐up on northern rivers impact winter travel and indicate responses to climate change. Open‐water zones (OWZs) within ice‐covered rivers are hazardous and may be increasing in extent and persistence. To better understand the distribution, variability, and mec...
