The historical and presettlement relationships between drought and wildfire are well
documented in North America, with forest fire occurrence and area clearly increasing in …

Mountains are essential sources of freshwater for our world, but their role in global water
resources could well be significantly altered by climate change. How well do we understand …

Climate warming induces shifts from snow to rain in cold regions, altering snowpack
dynamics with consequent impacts on streamflow that raise challenges to many aspects of …

Abstract In the western United States, the seasonal phase of snow storage bridges between
winter‐dominant precipitation and summer‐dominant water demand. The critical role of …

Despite the importance of precipitation phase to global hydroclimate simulations, many land
surface models use spatially uniform air temperature thresholds to partition rain and snow …

Inferring the mechanisms causing river flooding is key to understanding past, present, and
future flood risk. However, a quantitative spatially distributed overview of the mechanisms …

A changing climate can lead to changes in the frequency, intensity or duration of an extreme
event, or result in an 3 unprecedented, previously unobserved, extreme. As well, a weather …

In a warming climate, precipitation is less likely to occur as snowfall,. A shift from a snow-
towards a rain-dominated regime is currently assumed not to influence the mean streamflow …

River flooding can have severe societal, economic, and environmental consequences.
However, limited understanding of the regional differences in flood‐generating mechanisms …

Thermal regimes in rivers and streams are fundamentally important to aquatic ecosystems
and are expected to change in response to climate forcing as the Earth's temperature …
