Short summary
In cold regions the mechanisms of runoff generation have not yet been fully understood. In this study, a water-heat coupling model for snow cover and its underlying soil layers was established. Results show that the soil water storage played an important role in spring runoff generation. In winter, thick snow cover, soil temperature, heavy evaporation ability and increased of air temperature further decreased soil water content. Without enough water supplies, river runoff decreased in winter.
