| Abstract | Global climate change is impacting watershed hydrology and our use of water-related resources particularly in snow and glacier-fed drainage basins. Most glaciers are out of equilibrium with the current climate and they are slowly adjusting to seasonal changes in precipitation and higher temperatures by showing negative mass balance, significant volume loss and retreat in most areas. Rivers draining from the glaciers of the Greenland ice sheet are sensitive indicators of climate change and baseline data on their hydrology and sediment transport are important as they will allow current and future responses to climate change to be determined. |
