Freezing Temperature Controls Winter Water Discharge for Cold Region Watershed
Abstract
Abstract Pronounced climate warming over the arctic‐subarctic regions has lead to profound hydrological changes including intensified river flow, but how soil frost controls aquifer discharge remains poorly understood. This study quantifies the relationship between freezing temperature and baseflow in winter. Analyses show that the traditional reservoir models are unable to reproduce the observed baseflow variations. By incorporating a freezing …
