Journal article in The Cryosphere

In a recent paper in The Cryosphere, Ambarish Karmalkar (formerly in the Climate System Research Center, now at U Rhode Island) and I describe projected changes in runoff and river discharge across the pan-Arctic drainage basin. In a related piece in The Conversation we describe the results for broader audiences, concluding that “At the coast, changing river flows will also affect the plants, animals and Indigenous populations that call the region home. For them and for the global climate, our study’s findings highlight the need to closely watch how the Arctic is being transformed and take steps to mitigate the effects.”
