Constrained Earth system models show a stronger reduction in future Northern Hemisphere snowmelt water

Many climate models overestimate the snow amount in the Northern Hemisphere despite strong warming. Here the authors find that light snowfall and snow melting processes drive this mismatch and use these relationships to constrain future projections of snow water resources.
