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 …

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 …

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 …

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 …

气候变化与人类活动对水文过程产生了重大影响, 估计和区分二者的影响是水科学研究中的热点
问题. 针对气候变化和人类活动(土地利用/覆盖变化) 两个驱动因素, 分别综述了气候变化 …

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 …

In western North America, snow provides crucial storage of winter precipitation, effectively
transferring water from the relatively wet winter season to the typically dry summers. Manual …
