Abstract
The influence of Pack Ice Cover over the Great Lakes on surface heat fluxes was analyzed. The primary dataset used to determine ice cover was obtained by a downward-pointing digital video camera taken at passes approximately 500 m above the lake surface. It was found that despite the ice cover over Lake Erie, small differences between air temperatures and lake surface temperatures were evident. Moreover, light wind speeds and positive heat fluxes were clearly evident in many of the 50-m flights conducted on 25, 26, and 27 February 2004.
