The National Research Council of Canada and the University of British Columbia provided the funds for the collection of the field data used in the test. Lastly, Dr. M. Miyake of the Department of Oceanography at the University of British Columbia first presented the challenge of modeling the needle ice event climate. It is hoped that attempts to include fusion and water flow effects will increase the model precision in the needle ice event simulation which is a special case.
