Abstract: Ice jamming is a natural phenomenon observed on many rivers. Their occurrence is more or less a characteristic feature of most rivers freezing up in winter. In the Soviet Union, ice jams occur predominantly on rivers flowing through cold regions of the North, Siberia and Far East, e. g. on the Northern Dvina, Ob, Yenisei, Lena, etc. which are closed with ice cover up to 1.5 m thick due to extended winter periods of very low air temperatures.
