Thermal variables are crucial drivers of biological processes in lakes and ponds. In the
current context of climate change, determining which factors better constrain their variation …

Lakes are vital components of the Earth's hydrological cycle and are susceptible to the
impacts of climate change. Understanding the changes in terms of minimum and maximum …

Abstract Lake Surface Water Temperature (LSWT) influences critical bio-geological
processes in lake ecosystems, and there is growing evidence of rising LSWT over recent …

We present diverging long-term trends in the water temperature of a large boreal lake, Lake
Pyhäselkä (263 km2), located in eastern Finland. The dataset was constructed from a half …

Lake surface water temperature (LSWT) is a key indicator which drives ecosystem structure
and function. Quantifying the impact of climate change on LSWT variations is thus of great …

Annual maximum lake surface temperature influences ecosystem structure and function and,
in particular, the rates of metabolic activities, species survival and biogeography. Here, we …

The annual minimum of lake surface water temperature influences ecological and
biogeochemical processes, but variability and change in this extreme have not been …

Studies on the impact of climate change in lakes have mainly focused on the average
response of lake surface temperature during three summer months (July, August …

Water temperature is an important ecological variable that affects the functioning of lakes.
Unfortunately, for many lakes there are no long-term observations enabling the assessment …

Small, shallow lakes represent the majority of inland freshwater bodies. However, the effects
of climate change on such ecosystems have rarely been quantitatively addressed. We …
