Estimating Snow Mass and Peak River Flows for the Mackenzie River Basin Using GRACE Satellite Observations

Flooding is projected to increase with climate change in many parts of the world. Floods in cold regions are commonly a result of snowmelt during the spring break-up. The peak river flow (Qpeak) for the Mackenzie River, located in northwest Canada, is modelled using the Gravity Recovery and Climate...
