This study will focus on compiling existing knowledge from arctic water balance studies. This will be accomplished through 1) data collection through a survey of individual sites, 2) integrated data set development, and 3) comparative analysis. This research will create a unique database of water balance elements for the high latitude basins. The data will be used to compare and understand the water balance results from high latitude watersheds, with special emphasis on inter-annual variability, regional variability, long-term averages of the various hydrologic components (annual and seasonal), methodology for computations and scientific framework. Common issues, both strengths and weaknesses in northern hydrologic studies will be identified and collaborative research efforts to address these common issues will be recommended. The overall goal of this effort is to advance our understanding of circumpolar hydrologic processes through the synthesis of existing international data sets.

这项研究的重点是汇编北极水平衡研究的现有知识。这将通过以下方式实现：1）通过调查单个研究中心收集数据，2）开发综合数据集，3）进行比较分析。这项研究将为高纬度流域建立一个独特的水平衡要素数据库。这些数据将用于比较和了解高纬度流域的水平衡结果，特别强调年际变化、区域变化、各种水文组成部分的长期平均值（年度和季节）、计算方法和科学框架。将确定北方水文研究的共同问题，包括强项和弱点，并建议开展合作研究，以解决这些共同问题。这项工作的总体目标是通过综合现有的国际数据集，增进我们对环极水文过程的了解。
