International Network for Alpine Research Catchment Hydrology

Led by John Pomeroy, GIWS member, Canada Research Chair in Water Resources and Climate Change and director of the U of S Centre for Hydrology, the International Network for Alpine Research Catchment Hydrology (INARCH) is a project of the Global Energy and Water Exchanges (GEWEX). The project's goal is to better understand alpine cold regions hydrological processes, improve their prediction and find consistent measurement strategies.

This network of 40 scientists operating at 23 mountain research catchments around the world are sharing data and expertise to investigate the effects of mountain snowpacks and glaciers on water supply and study variations in energy and water exchange amongst different high-altitude regions.
