Abstract Because of special geographical position,river course characteristics and hydro-meteorological conditions,the disasters of ice flood usually happened every year in Ningmeng and downstream river sections of the Yellow River.Thermodynamic factor is the main reason that caused ice flood.As a represent of thermodynamic factor,temperature plays an important role in ice flood.This paper summarizes the research contents of ice flood,describes the relationship between temperature and ice flood.Then,the recent researches of ice flood prediction is introduced and the significant of temperature for ice flood forecasting is also elaborated.
