Projected shifts in climate forcing variables such as temperature and precipitation are of
great relevance to arctic freshwater ecosystems and biota. These will result in many direct …

Climate change is a reality. A warming climate will have large effects on lakes of the Boreal
Shield. Our ability to forecast these effects, however, is hampered by a very incomplete …

There is a pressing need to understand how ecosystems will respond to climate change. To
date, no long-term empirical studies have confirmed that fish populations exhibit adaptive …

The ecological consequences of winter in freshwater systems are an understudied but
rapidly emerging research area. Here, we argue that winter periods of reduced temperature …

The Northern Highlands Lake District of Wisconsin is in transition from a sparsely settled
region to a more densely populated one. Expected changes offer benefits to northern …

The ability to determine ages of fishes without bias is critical to effective management and
research. Accurate age information can provide valuable insights into critical life history …

The Arctic is now experiencing some of the most rapid and severe climate change on earth.
Over the next 100 years, climate change is expected to accelerate, contributing to major …

Climate change is expected to drive species ranges towards the poles and to have a strong
influence on species distributions. In this study, we focused on diadromous species that are …

Abstract The Laurentian Great Lakes of North America provide valuable ecosystem services,
including fisheries, to the surrounding population. Given the prevalence of other …

In recent decades, three important events have likely played a role in changing the water
temperature and clarity of the Laurentian Great Lakes: 1) warmer climate, 2) reduced …
