Introduction
A scientific symposium on Cold Regions
Hydrology, was held in Innsbruck,
28-30 April 2010. The workshop was organized by the Network
of Climate and Cryosphere Research at the University of Innsbruck,
ENVEO IT, and the European Space Agency (ESA). The Climate and
Cryosphere
(CliC) Programme of WCRP is a scientific co-sponsor of the workshop.
The objective of the
workshop was
to review and assess recent developments in observations and modelling
of the
water cycle and runoff in regions where contributions by snow and
glaciers are
essential. The outcome of the workshop shall provide guidance for
future
developments in observation systems, data assimilation techniques and
modelling. The topic of the workshop is relevant to scientific
preparations for
the Cold Regions Hydrology – High resolution Observatory
(CoReH2O)
mission presently in Phase-A (feasibility) study at ESA, as well as
for use of satellite data
in hydrological
models in general.
