Cold Region Atmospheric and Hydrologic Studies. The Mackenzie GEWEX Experience Volume 2: Hydrologic Processes / edited by Ming-ko Woo.

This book presents decade-long advances in atmospheric research in the Mackenzie River Basin in northern Canada, which encompasses environments representative of most cold areas on Earth. Collaborative efforts by a team of about 100 scientists and engineers have yielded knowledge entirely transferab...
