The objectives of this project are: 1) to develop improved understanding of, and ability to predict, snowcover formation and melt, as well as stream discharge in northern regions, 2) consider the integrated effect of climate on vegetation, snow, permafrost, streamflow, and lakes, and 3) develop improved predictive tools or models. These will allow a better understanding of the impact of climate ch...

As part of a long-term study, this research will examine the important role that snow plays in northern ecosystems. Snow accounts for a large portion of yearly precipitation: when it melts, snow is a significant source of freshwater for refilling lakes and ponds, and for plant growth. This study will examine the role that snow plays in controlling streamflow and movement of solutes, nutrients an...
