    7th SEDIBUD Workshop Towards an integrated analysis of environmental drivers and rates of contemporary solute and sedimentary fluxes in changing cold climate environments: From coordinated field data generation to integration and modelling and SEDIBUD Summer School for Doctoral Students Quantitative analysis of geomorphologic processes: Field methods, experimental techniques and modelling Trondheim (September 10?13, 2012) and LoenNordfjord (September 13 ? 17, 2012), Norway Amplified climate change and ecological sensitivity of high-latitude and high-altitude cold climate environments has been highlighted as a key global environmental issue. Projected climate change in cold regions is expected to alter melt season duration and intensity, along with the number of extreme rainfall events, total annual precipitation and the balance between snowfall and rainfall. Similarly, changes to the thermal balance are expected to reduce the extent of permafrost and seasonal ground frost and increase active layer depths. These effects will undoubtedly change surface environments in cold regions and alter the fluxes of sediments, nutrients and solutes, but the absence of quantitative data and coordinated process monitoring and analysis to understand the sensitivity of the Earth surface environment is acute in cold climate environments.
