Thawinduced
Thawinduced is an adjective used in geography, climatology, and related fields to describe processes, effects, or conditions that result from thawing of snow, ice, or ground. It is commonly applied to seasonal warming events that cause rapid melt, soil thaw, and changes in hydrology and terrain.
The term encompasses several physical phenomena. As temperatures rise above freezing, snow and ice melt and
Impacts of thawinduced changes include altered hydrology, with higher peak flows in rivers and streams during
Researchers study thawinduced phenomena through field measurements, remote sensing, and hydrological and geomorphological models. Understanding these
