Abstract Based on the Baltic Earth Assessment Reports of this thematic issue in Earth
System Dynamics and recent peer-reviewed literature, current knowledge of the effects of …

The ice‐cover period in lakes is increasingly recognized for its distinct combination of
physical and biological phenomena and ecological relevance. Knowledge gaps exist where …

Climate change could seriously threaten global lake ecosystems by warming lake surface
water and increasing the occurrence of lake heatwaves. Yet, there are great uncertainties in …

How lake temperatures across large geographic regions are responding to widespread
alterations in ice phenology (ie, the timing of seasonal ice formation and loss) remains …

Seasonal ice in lakes plays an important role for local communities and lake ecosystems.
Here we use Large Ensemble simulations conducted with the Community Earth System …

Global climate warming is causing the loss of freshwater ice around the Northern
Hemisphere. Although the timing and duration of ice covers are known to regulate …

During the freeze-thaw cycles of ice-covered lakes, DOM undergoes a series of
transformations including enrichment, dispersion, and filtration. However, the mechanisms …

In recent decades, lakes have experienced unprecedented ice loss with widespread
ramifications for winter ecological processes. The rapid loss of ice, resurgence of winter …

A common feature of cold regions is the presence of ice cover on water surface. IN the
presence of vegetation in the channel bed which is normally leafless in winter, interaction …

Lake ice thickness (LIT) is important for regional hydroclimate systems, lake ecosystems,
and human activities on the ice, and is thought to be highly susceptible to global warming …
