CREST's River Ice Monitor online

Posted on January 25, 2013

With the 2013 winter freeze well underway, CUNY’s CREST Institute is fine-tuning its own technique that can help detect ice on rivers and help mitigate these potential losses, as well as assist river navigators with making faster and safer passage.
