## Abstract Many rivers of cold, and even temperate, regions of the globe are covered with ice for a part of the year. Projections of future climate indicate that the duration, composition and extent of ice coverage, however, will gradually change. This may have wideβranging consequences because ic

## Abstract A shrinking cryosphere has important implications for the geomorphology of alluvial channels in arctic catchments because ice and permafrost alter the driving and resisting forces responsible for shaping local channel cross sections. For example, bedfast ice in shallow channels can supp
## Abstract This study investigates basinβscale hydrologic implications of the replacement of forestβdominated land cover by rubber plantations in Montane Mainland Southeast Asia. The paper presents a new method for estimating the water demand of rubber and consequently water losses to the atmosphe
