Quantifying rates of climate change in mountain regions is of considerable interest, not least
because mountains are viewed as climate “hotspots” where change can anticipate or …

Anthropogenic climate change is decreasing seasonal snowpacks globally, with potentially
catastrophic consequences on water resources, given the long-held reliance on snowpack …

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 …

Climate, physical landscapes, and biota interact to generate heterogeneous hydrologic
conditions in space and over time, which are reflected in spatial patterns of species …

Declining mountain snowpack and earlier snowmelt across the western United States has
implications for downstream communities. We present a possible mechanism linking …

Headwater catchments are the fundamental units that connect the land to the ocean.
Hydrological flow and biogeochemical processes are intricately coupled, yet their respective …

Mountain snowpacks act as natural water towers, storing winter precipitation until summer
months when downstream water demand is greatest. We introduce a Snow Storage Index …

Climate change is altering the seasonal accumulation and ablation of snow across mid-
latitude mountainous regions in the Northern Hemisphere with profound implications for the …

The phase of precipitation when it reaches the ground is a first-order driver of hydrologic
processes in a watershed. The presence of snow, rain, or mixed-phase precipitation affects …

The mountain cryosphere and groundwater play pivotal roles in sha** the hydrological
cycle, yet their connectivity remains incompletely understood. Current knowledge on …
