Potential impacts of a warming climate on water availability in snow-dominated regions

All currently available climate models predict a near-surface warming trend under the influence of rising levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. In addition to the direct effects on climatefor example, on the frequency of heatwavesthis increase in surface temperatures has important consequenc...
