Biogeography ; Drought ; Fir tree ; Freezing ; Montana ; Mountain ; National park ; Snow cover ; Tree line ; United States of America ; Winter
The objectives of this research are to : quantify the amount of winter dessication that occurred at treeline sites in Glacier National Park, Montana, during the winter of 1998/1999; determine if the variability in winter dessication between
climatic factors may be responsible for inter-annual winter dessication variability.

The aim of this paper is to analyze the interannual variability which characterizes the late-winter surface air temperature in mid-latitude Europe, 45-60°N, and discuss its causes. The AA. analyze the interannual variability at its extreme
by comparing the warm-winter/early-spring of 1989/90 with the opposite scenario in 1995/96. They examine the influence of maritime-air advection in raising the winter air temperature in Europe.
Water status in winter wheat grown under salt stress
Properties of the soil surface layer, the temporal pattern of the microclimate variables as well as crop condition were combined to analyze the characteristics of the evapotranspiration from winter wheat fields in a saline soil area. The objectives

This paper examines the temporal pattern of daily snowmelt across the northern portion of the Great Plains of the United States for the three-month winter season, December through February, for the 60-year period 1933-1934 through 1992-1993. A three

The concentration of boron (B) were measured in rain, air and soil water along transects across the Southern Alps, New Zealand, during southern autumn and early winter 1999. Estimates of wet deposition, dry deposition, and flux of boron leaving
Based on a field survey, the connectivity of culverts to the channel network was related primarily to hillslope curvature and distance to the natural stream channel. Culvert crest stage recorders operated during winters 1996/97 and 1997/98

recovered in 1995. The die-back period had a number of cold winters, which points to the role of ice in the Spartina die-back. In comparison with the local tidal range, possible future planting of Spartina in salt marsh management strategies should take
percent increase in mean monthly runoff, indicating greater risk of winter flooding associated with accelerated snow pack melt, increased spring runoff, and a shift of the minimum runoff month to earlier in the year. A. plead for flexibility in planning
