Understanding the dynamics of snow cover in forests can help us predict flood risks

Retrieved on: 
Wednesday, October 4, 2023

For more than six months a year, Quebec’s boreal forest is covered in a thick blanket of snow.

Key Points: 
  • For more than six months a year, Quebec’s boreal forest is covered in a thick blanket of snow.
  • The major floods of spring 2023 in the Charlevoix region show why the snow cover poses a risk.
  • Last winter, the Rivière du Gouffre watershed, of which nearly 75 per cent is covered by forests, accumulated a large amount of snow.

Rain as an energy carrier

    • As we saw in the spring of 2023, rain events combined with snow cover can lead to a sudden rise in river water levels.
    • A heat exchange occurs between rain and snow when their temperatures differ.
    • Once the snow has reached a temperature of 0°C, any additional heat from the rain causes melting.

The snow cover, a complexly structured environment

    • Rather, it is a stack of snow layers that represent the history of the winter’s meteorological events.
    • Rainwater must percolate through all the snow layers to reach the ground, and eventually, the watercourse.

The role of the forest

    • By intercepting part of the precipitation in its solid form (snow), trees limit the accumulation of snow on the ground.
    • In addition, the discharge of snow intercepted by trees in solid or liquid form increases the heterogeneity of the snow cover.

The same everywhere?

    • It’s more akin to sparse vegetation with treeless zones known as gaps.
    • In these gaps, the structure of the snow cover is very different from that under the trees.
    • The greater accumulation of snow in the gaps favours the compaction of snow layers and the formation of fine grains.

Snow melts faster in gaps

    • Although more snow would accumulate in the gaps, it takes less time to melt and reaches the watercourse more quickly than the snow under the trees.
    • The combination of thicker snow cover in the gaps and more permeable snow layers under the trees contributed to the Rivière du Gouffre flooding Baie-Saint-Paul during the extreme rainfall of spring 2023.
    • However, increased knowledge of the interactions between snow cover and forest will help improve hydrological models and ensure better public protection against flooding.
