Abstract: This paper discusses the resistance characteristics of ice during its formation, growth and melting life cycle based on our experimental research. We discovered that the resistance of ice falls into the low and high resistance zones as the temperature changes. We therefore established our new research theory of ‘ice status measurements based on the equivalent resistance difference among air, ice and water’. Our ‘R-T Resistance and Temperature ice and water measurement sensor’structure design is based on this new theory. Field researches have been conducted in both the Yellow River basin in North China and in the Heilongjiang River in North East China. Data have been collected with the ‘R-T ice and water measurement sensor’and analyzed. Our analysis approved the influences of ice structure on the equivalent resistance difference of ice. Our research provides an applicable solution to the real engineering practices.
