An experimental model of reflection and transmission of ocean waves by an ice floe is presented. Evolution of mechanically-generated, regular waves is monitored in front and in the lee of a solitary, square floe, made of a synthetic material. Results confirm dependence of reflection and transmission on the period of the incident wave. Results also indicate that wave overwash on the floe affects reflection and transmission.
