Changing permafrost may have significant consequences on the hydrological regime of an alpine catchment. For an area abundant in unconsolidated sediments model parameters such as the spatial distribution of the effective storage volume, the permafrost distribution and the hydraulic conductivity are essential. In this work the first steps such as the quantification of the effective storage volume, the detection of permafrost, and the estimation of ground water storage are presented.
