Lakes hold much of Earth's accessible liquid freshwater, support biodiversity and provide
key ecosystem services to people around the world. However, they are vulnerable to climate …

Climate change is one of the most severe threats to global lake ecosystems. Lake surface
conditions, such as ice cover, surface temperature, evaporation and water level, respond …

Warming-induced changes in lake thermal and mixing regimes present risks to water quality
and ecosystem services provided by US lakes and reservoirs. Modulation of responses by …

The physical response of lakes to climate warming is regionally variable and highly
dependent on individual lake characteristics, making generalizations about their …

Studies of future 21st century climate warming in lakes along altitudinal gradients have been
partially obscured by local atmospheric phenomena unresolved in climate models. Here we …

Lake ecosystems are jeopardized by the impacts of climate change on ice seasonality and
water temperatures. Yet historical simulations have not been used to formally attribute …

Abstract Changes in water temperatures resulting from climate warming can alter the
structure and function of aquatic ecosystems. Lake-specific physical characteristics may play …

Meteorology is the driving force for lake internal heating, cooling, mixing, and circulation.
Thus continued global warming will affect the lake thermal properties, water level, internal …

Low concentrations of dissolved oxygen remain a global concern regarding the ecological
health of lakes and reservoirs. In addition to high nutrient loads, climate‐induced changes in …

Widespread increases in lake surface water temperature have been documented in recent
decades. Yet our understanding of global lake warming is mainly based on summertime …
