Past Variability of Permafrost | CCIN
https://www.ccin.ca/home/ccw/permafrost/past
PDC Data / Metadata Input. Past Variability of Permafrost. Permafrost is a thermal condition and therefore its occurrence is dependent on climate. Climate, however, is not constant and historically has undergone significant changes detectable at time scales from decades or centuries to millennia ( Figure 1. Permafrost variability during the Last Interglacial Optimum. Click figure for larger image. Material for this section was provided by Sharon Smith and Margo Burgess, Geological Survey of Canada.

Snow | CCIN
https://www.ccin.ca/home/ccw/snow
PDC Data / Metadata Input. According to The International Classification for Seasonal Snow on the Ground. Snow is precipitation in the form of small ice crystals which may fall singly or in flakes. Deposited snow is a highly porous material that builds up the snow cover on the ground. Fierz et al., 2009). Daily snow monitoring maps are available from Environment Canada.

Glaciers | CCIN
https://www.ccin.ca/home/ccw/glaciers
PDC Data / Metadata Input. According to the Glossary of Glacier Mass Balance and Related Terms. A glacier is a perennial mass of ice, and possibly firn and snow, originating on the land surface by the recrystallization of snow or other forms of solid precipitation and showing evidence of past or present flow. Cogley et al., 2011). Material on this page was edited by Maren Pauly, Department of Geography, University of Waterloo. For photograph references, hover over image. Updated on June 18, 2015.

Projections and Impacts of Changes in Snow Cover | CCIN
https://www.ccin.ca/home/ccw/snow/future
PDC Data / Metadata Input. Projections and Impacts of Changes in Snow Cover. The shorter snow cover season and shallower winter snowpack projected over most of Canada in response to global warming will have wide ranging impacts for winter recreation (e.g. Scott et al. 2008), ecology, forest fire risk, ground thermal conditions, and management of water resources (Callaghan et al. 2011; Kim et al. 2015).
