The snow cover is a key component of land surface hydrology, especially in mountain areas
where it governs the amount and timing of water availability in downstream areas. It is …

Streamflow in high-mountain Asia is influenced by meltwater from snow and glaciers, and
determining impacts of climate change on the region's cryosphere is essential to understand …

Atmospheric rivers (ARs) transport large amounts of moisture from the mid-to high-latitudes
and they are a primary driver of the most extreme snowfall events, along with surface …

Physically based multilayer snowpack models suffer from various modelling errors. To
represent these errors, we built the new multiphysical ensemble system ESCROC …

Knowing the timing and the evolution of the snow melting process is very important, since it
allows the prediction of (i) the snowmelt onset,(ii) the snow gliding and wet-snow …

Modeled snow stratigraphy and instability data are a promising source of information for
avalanche forecasting. While instability indices describing the mechanical processes of dry …

Antarctic ice‐shelf stability is threatened by surface melt, which has been implicated in
several ice‐shelf collapse events over recent decades. Here, we first analyze cumulative …

Abstract Rain-on-snow (ROS) events have caused severe floods in mountainous areas in
the recent past. Because of the complex interactions of physical processes, it is still difficult …

River ecosystems are highly sensitive to climate change and projected future increase in air
temperature is expected to increase the stress for these ecosystems. Rivers are also an …

Snow cover is highly critical for global water and energy cycles because of its wide areal
extent, high reflectivity and good thermal insulation. Knowledge of snow conditions, eg …
