Year: 2005 Language: english Author: MANICE - Canadian Ice Service Publisher: MANICE Edition: 9th ISBN: 0-660-62858-9 Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 146 Description: The information from ice observations is very important and serves many purposes and needs. Ice observations and carefully prepared records have longrange, as well as immediate value. • Some people require up-to-the-minute information; for example, an icebreaker captain needs current ice reports and forecasts. • Others require data having daily, monthly or long-term climatological significance; for instance, marine engineers require climatological and/or monthly data. The decision to construct a dock in a certain locality or the strengthening a vessel structure should have in order to withstand ice stress will depend on ice data obtained over a long period. Ice observations may be made from: • fixed-wing aircraft, • the deck of a ship, • a helicopter, or • a shore base.
