Cover Story: Water flow in cold climate watersheds of Canada is very sensitive to climate change. In this study, historical discharge data acquired at many gauging stations across the Athabasca River and Peace River Basins were analyzed on monthly, seasonal, and annual scales from 1956. On the other hand, the possible effects of climate and land cover changes on water flow were also investigated. An analysis of a longer period of climate data showed a gradual warming trend and a declining trend in precipitation across the Basins. The water flow had a declining trend in the middle and lower reaches over the past 60 years, while the flow rate increased during the cold and open warm seasons over the past 30–40 years, likely due to recent land cover changes and the gradual melting of snowpacks/glaciers.
