DOI 10.1007/s13280-011-0213-x Multiple Effects of Changes in Arctic Snow Cover
Abstract Snow cover plays a major role in the climate, hydrological and ecological systems of the Arctic and other regions through its influence on the surface energy balance (e.g. reflectivity), water balance (e.g. water storage and release), thermal regimes (e.g. insulation), vegetation and trace...
