Kolyma Water Balance Station, Magadan Oblast, Northeast U.S.S.R.: United States - Soviet Scientific Exchange Visit.

Abstract

Two U.S. scientists visited Kolyma Water Balance Station (KWBS) in Magadan Oblast of northeast U.S.S.R. during the last two weeks of August 1976. Under the auspices of the Joint U.S.A. - U.S.S.R. Agreement on Cooperation in the Field of Environmental Protection, this trip was undertaken to review current Soviet watershed hydrology research in a permafrost-dominated setting similar to that of central Alaska. Research objectives, instrumentation, and field practices were observed and discussed at KWBS. A series of proposals for future co-operation in high-latitude hydrology research and data exchange was prepared.
