Summary

Presenting 10-year advances in atmospheric research in the Mackenzie River Basin in northern Canada, representative of most cold areas on Earth, this book presents knowledge transferable to other high latitude regions in America, Europe and Asia. It partners the second volume from the GEWEX project on the region's hydrological processes.
