在过去的2年里，我们对控制积雪形成和融化的物理过程的理解取得了相当大的进展。这项工作为更好地理解和预测雪在高山和北方环境中所起的复杂作用提供了必要的基础，包括水流、气候、通过积雪的营养物质和污染物的通量以及雪下生态。本文简要介绍了我们对积雪分布、融化和径流控制过程的认识现状和未来研究的关键领域。一个主要的重点是审查迄今为止在广泛尺度上积雪异质性的重要性方面取得的进展。
During the last 2() years considerable progress has been made in our understanding of the physical processes controlling snowcover formation and melt. This work provides the basis required for a better understanding of, and ability to predict, the complex role snow plays in alpine and northern environments, including, for example, streamflow, climate, fluxes of nutrients and pollutants through the snow pack, and subnivean ecology. This paper provides a brief synthesis of the current state of our understanding and critical areas for future research on processes controlling snowcover distribution, melt and runoff. A major focus is to review progress to date on the importance of the heterogeneous nature of the snowcover over a wide range of scales.
