Modeling snow redistribution by wind and avalanches in hydrological studies in alpine
catchments is important, as the spatial variability of the snow cover has an impact on timing …

Mountain areas provide disproportionally high runoff in many parts of the world, but their
importance for water resources and food production has not been clarified from the …

Gridded analyses of observed precipitation are an important data resource for
environmental modelling, climate model evaluation and climate monitoring. In Europe …

Climate change can reduce surface-water supply by enhancing evapotranspiration in
forested mountains, especially during heatwaves. We investigate this 'drought paradox'for …

In the region of the European Alps, national and regional meteorological services operate
rain-gauge networks, which together, constitute one of the densest in situ observation …

Bias Correction of Global High-Resolution Precipitation Climatologies Using Streamflow
Observations from 9372 Catchments in: Journal of Climate Volume 33 Issue 4 (2020) Jump …

Mountains are important sources of freshwater for the adjacent lowlands. In view of
increasingly scarce freshwater resources, this contribution should be clarified. While earlier …

The contribution of glaciers to runoff from large‐scale drainage basins in Europe is analyzed
for the major streams originating in the Alps: Rhine, Rhone, Po, and Danube. Detailed …

Spatially distributed modelling is an important instrument for studying the hydrological cycle,
both concerning its present state as well as possible future changes in climate and land use …

The article introduces the notion of adaptiveness and discusses the role of social learning in
it. Adaptiveness refers to the capacity of a social actor or social–ecological system to adapt …
