--> The power affecting a floating island plays an important role regarding how fast it moves and where it goes. It( the power) has the same effect on that affect floating mobile ice chunks during the partially open water season.

The power--? I cannot come up with a word that can replace ' force'. Do you have any suggestion?
it has the same effect as the one affect ice chuncks that move in the ocean during the open water season. ( I have no idea . please help me)

That's my point: why should you try to come up with something else? 'The forces acting on' is the natural choice.
As for 'open water', just replace the hyphen.
