This paper describes ESM-SnowMIP, an international coordinated modelling effort to
evaluate current snow schemes, including snow schemes that are included in Earth system …

Streamflow regimes are changing and expected to further change under the influence of
climate change, with potential impacts on flow variability and the seasonality of extremes …

Snow in mountainous regions is a key water resource from local to continental scales.
However, the link between increasingly frequent snow droughts and socio-hydrologic …

Anthropogenic climate change is affecting the snowpack freshwater storage, with
socioeconomic and ecological impacts. We present an assessment of maximum snow water …

Abstract The Sierra Nevada and Southern Cascades—California's snowy mountains—are
primary freshwater sources and natural reservoirs for the states of California and Nevada …

The Mediterranean Basin has experienced one of the highest warming rates on earth during
the last few decades, and climate projections predict water scarcity in the future. Mid-latitude …

Water management throughout the western United States largely relies on the partitioning of
cool season mountain precipitation into rain and snow, particularly snow as it maximizes …

Operational water-resource forecasters, such as the Colorado Basin River Forecast Center
(CBRFC) in the Western United States, currently rely on historical records to calibrate the …

Abstract Santa Ana winds (SAWs) are associated with anomalous temperatures in coastal
Southern California (SoCal). As dry air flows over SoCal's coastal ranges on its way from the …

Boreal and sub-alpine forests host seasonal snow for multiple months per year; however,
snow regimes in these environments are rapidly changing due to rising temperatures and …
