Fig. 1 A, R: 
Land regions and snowmelt, Berens River Area, Manitoba. 
Image A shows ERTS-1 band 7, B shows band 5. Note the 
climatic transition shown by snowcover and totally frozen 
lakes in the north, completely melted snowcover in the 
midzone (meltwater is stored in wetlands, dark on A) and 
ice covered lakes which show signs of meltwater. In the 
southern portion ice and snow have disappeared.
