Beaufort Sea Ice Mechanical Energy Budget 1975-76.

Abstract

In this report, we present and describe the mechanical energy budget of the Beaufort Sea for one year (during the AIDJEX main experiment, 1975-76). We also present some preliminary evidence to verify the conjecture that the energy dissipated in the deformation of the ice cover is related to the background noise level.
