Abstract

There is already compelling evidence that climate change in northern temperate, boreal and sub-arctic catchments is having a major effect on hydrological processes (McClelland et al., 2006; Rennermalm et al., 2010). The Commentary considers the cascade of implications of changes in the annual water balance and seasonal streamflow distribution that can be anticipated for water quality and in-stream ecology in northern regions.
