  The Role of Snowpack Dynamics in Seasonal Water Supply Variability
  Author(s): Luca Cossa*
  
  Snowpack plays a crucial role in seasonal water supply, serving as a vital component of the hydrological cycle. The dynamics of snow accumulation and melt significantly influence water availability in many regions, particularly those dependent on snowmelt for their water resources. This article examines the role of snowpack dynamics in seasonal water supply, reviewing the processes governing snow accumulation and melt, the impact of climate change on snowpack and the implications for water resource management. By integrating recent research and case studies, this paper highlights the importance of understanding snowpack dynamics for predicting and managing seasonal water variability... Read More»
