Climate change is affecting lake stratification with consequences for water quality and the
benefits that lakes provide to society. Here we use long‐term temperature data (1970–2010) …

While there is a general sense that lakes can act as sentinels of climate change, their
efficacy has not been thoroughly analyzed. We identified the key response variables within a …

Most of Earth's fresh surface water is consolidated in just a few of its largest lakes, and

Abstract The western United States is a region long defined by water challenges. Climate
change adds to those historical challenges, but does not, for the most part, introduce entirely …

It is well established that nonnative species are a key driver of global environmental change,
but much less is known about the underlying drivers of nonnative species outbreaks …
