Strong Warming Rates in the Surface and Bottom Layers of a Boreal Lake: Results From Approximately Six Decades of Measurements (1964–2020)

Abstract: At global scale, lakes are warming faster than both the atmosphere and the oceans (O'Reilly et al., 2015). Given that, all lakes are land-locked, these changes could be intensified by the projected changing climate under the future influence of anthropogenic stressors (Jane et al., 2021;Modabberi et al., 2020;Woolway et al., 2021). This could have deep implications for the lake ecological services (Kraemer et al., 2021;Pilla et al., 2020) and threaten both the quantity and quality of the most important sources… Show more

“…A steep decrease in the change rate in the epilimnion was also observed in scenarios RCP4.5 and RCP8.5; however, in these two scenarios, a sudden increase was exhibited at a depth of ~ 21 m due to the deepening epilimnion. The slower temperature increase at greater depths was in agreement with previous studies [9,10]; however, we are not aware of any studies reporting the rate as a function of water depth with a resolution that is ne enough to discern this kind of peculiar behavior in the thermocline region.…”

“…In addition, during the last couple of decades, anthropogenic pressure on aquatic systems has also globally increased [5][6][7][8]. To better understand and predict possible lake responses and eventual consequences, increasing effort is being invested into researching not only the surface water response but also the deep water response and strati cation [9][10][11]. While surface water temperatures have exhibited a globally increasing trend [12], deep water temperatures do not follow this consistent trend and show high variability in both sign and value across lakes [9].…”

“…Previous studies, notably those involving detailed satellite images, have suggested that lake surface water temperatures are increasing globally (O’Reilly et al., 2015; Schneider & Hook, 2010; Woolway et al., 2020), with deep lakes situated at high‐latitude typically experiencing the greatest change (Woolway & Maberly, 2020; Woolway & Merchant, 2017). The rapid warming of high‐latitude lakes under climatic change partially reflects the substantial increase in air temperature in polar regions (Noori, Bateni, et al., 2022; Post et al., 2018; Stuecker et al., 2018). However, some high‐latitude lakes, as well as many others situated at lower latitudes, also experience summer surface temperature trends that are sometimes greater than local changes in air temperature (O’Reilly et al., 2015; Schneider et al., 2009).…”

“…Meanwhile, old districts and worn-out areas are more prone to flooding in the case of heavy precipitation. This result confirms the high potential of flood risk in the worn-out districts that was mentioned by Asadi et al 37 , who provided strategies for urban infrastructure, facilities and equipment to be sustainable.Considering that global warming can intencify the flood consequences 9 and cause unusual impacts on the natural events 38 , improving the FR in the urban areas becomes more important. Also, the results are in line with Moradpour et al 39 who stated informal settlements, worn-out urban fabrics, and central parts of www.nature.com/scientificreports/ cities have lower resilience to flood.…”
