| Abstract | 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 numerical modelling approaches, available tools, required data and supporting technologies and methods for the development of modelling and forecasting tools. The report also provides a summary of available studies about numerical modelling of ice jam flooding concerning Ontario’ Far North based on a review of open literature. The report also provides recommendations for the Surface Water Monitoring Centre of Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry on next steps towards developing such model and forecast tool developments. |
