    Merci de partager ces images, sur lesquelles je reviens de temps à autres, incluant les années précédentes. Votre contribution sur le phénomène des mouvements de glace sur la Chaudière est non seulement spectaculaire, mais elle constitue pratiquement un documentaire "historico-patrimonial", quand on pense aux relations que les riverains de la Chaudière peuvent avoir avec ce cours d'eau aux humeurs si variables, à la place de cette rivière dans l'imaginaire de ceux qui la connaissent. Merci encore, et à une autre année, j'espère.

    These "V" shaped spillways are designed to do exactly this, many rivers in northern climes can come to almost a complete flow-stop (especially rivers primarily fed by runoff) the ice can get feet thick and during the rapid rise during the thaw huge ice-flows become a problem. These, as you saw, use the weight of the ice against itself and break things up. Very cool.

  • @wrightgregson9761
    @wrightgregson9761 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    here in New England (and elsewhere?) this is an annual Spring event that we call "ice out". It is when the weather has been a bit warmer for a long enough time for the integrity of the river ice to be shattered and so begins the actual Spring weather. One of the great dangers on some rivers is down stream where enormous ice dams occur. Great damage can occur where the water backs up and where the ice jam press on bridges etc. Here in Northern Massachusetts, it was an annual pilgrimage to go to the dam at Lowell MA on the Merrimac River when ice-out occurred.

      They like that. They have an effortless way to liftoff so why bother ...

    It's amazing how thick that ice is. And some the size of automobiles

    Here in NZ we never see anything like this. It's fascinating.

    Merci, impressionnant pour nous qui n'avons pas eu de neige depuis 10 ans (Bretagne sud)

    Spring has sprung. WOW! The ice started about 300mm thick but the later blocks must have been 3 to 4 meter thick. The weir was doing its job of breaking it all up into smaller pieces to speed thawing.

    Wow what a scene! Go to 11:00 minutes and you will see how big these chunks can get compared to human body. Nothing can stop flowing waters. It explains how canyons got carved by water. Thanks for this video.
