Abstract

Montgomery, M.R. The pattern of winter ice. The author summarizes present knowledge of winter conditions in each of the "gulfs of warmth", based on records of observers on land and sea in earlier years, and on flight observations 1927-28 (Hudson Strait), also winters of 1948-49 (Hudson Bay). Indicates that in late winter and early spring Hudson Bay was completely icecovered (1947-48,1948-49) and that further observations are planned for 1949-50.
