On the spatial and temporal variability of ice arches associated with the formation of the North Water (NOW) Polynya

The formation and dissolution of the North Water Polynya (an area of open water surrounded by a sea-ice covered ocean) was examined to determine the spatial and temporal variability of the Smith Sound ice arch (a feature that prevents ice from covering the polynya).
