In cold regions, changes in hydrology related to changing climate, such as in frozen soils, snowfall/rainfall ratio, snow cover, river and lake ice, glacier cover and vegetation, are not well understood. The contributions here report new research results based on field observations, modelling and remote sensing in geographical regions ranging from Chile to the Arctic. Collectively they highlight recent progress in cold regions hydrology research and its linkage with climate change at various space and time scales, but also identify gaps and needs for future research. They cover a broad domain, including snow cover, glaciers, permafrost, streamflow, temperature, precipitation, groundwater and ecosystems.
