- What device would be effective in blocking sea ice export and be minimally invasive to Arctic organisms?
- How does an artificial structure blocking sea ice export impact turbulence?
- Design cable / structure to block ice export (particularly difficult given extremely high currents, winds, and ice pressures in Nares Strait).
- Identify/design mooring or structure that would secure the cable or blocking structure (note that Nares Strait would be a particularly difficult place to deploy and maintain a mooring due to extremely high currents, wind, and ice pressures).
