Due to strong wind in winter and low height vegetation, snowdrift is a common feature in the tundra area, and remain as snow patches until the middle of summer, supplying meltwater to rivers. In the summer water balance analysis, we introduced the ratio α of the snow patch area to the whole watershed area as a tuning parameter for taking into account the meltwater from the snow patches. The obtained results are as follows : The contribution of meltwater from snow patches to discharge continued in summer after the main snowmelt period. Rainfall and snowmelt amount changed substantially from year to year. The major output component was discharge. The contribution of evapotranspiration to the output varied year to year. The storage change was small compared with the other components.}, pages = {91--106}, title = {Characteristics of summer water balance in eastern Siberian tundra watershed}, volume = {15}, year = {2001} }
