Lake Ice Will Be Less Safe for Recreation and Transportation Under Future Warming
Millions of lakes from around the world freeze during winter. These frozen surfaces provide essential ecosystem services that are vital to many northern communities.

Simple Method to Extract Lake Ice Condition From Landsat Images
Ice plays key roles in regulating hydrological, ecological, biogeochemical, and socioeconomic functions of lakes. Long-term in situ lake ice phenological records indicate that lake ice is trending toward later freeze-up, earlier breakup, and a shorter ...

The Lake Ice Continuum Concept: Influence of Winter Conditions on Energy and Ecosystem Dynamics
Millions of lakes worldwide are distributed at latitudes or elevations resulting in the formation of lake ice during winter. Lake ice affects the transfer of energy, heat, light, and material between lakes and their surroundings creating an environment ...

Estimating lake ice thickness in Central Ontario. [PDF]
Lakes are a key geographical feature in Canada and have an impact on the regional climate. In the winter, they are important for recreational activities such as snowmobiling and ice fishing and act as part of an important supply route for northern ...

Around 50% of the world's lakes freeze seasonally, but the duration of ice‐cover is shortening each year and this is likely to have broad limnological consequences.

On thin ice: Linking elevation and long‐term losses of lake ice cover
Despite long‐term analyses of lake ice phenology globally, comparatively little is known about high‐elevation lakes, for which climate shifts are thought to be occurring faster than at lower elevations. Using a 36‐yr dataset (1983–2018) on alpine lakes (>

A novel method for detecting lake ice cover using optical satellite data
Seasonal lake ice is sensitive to temperature fluctuations and long-term temperature trends. It is therefore a good indicator of climate warming, which will likely have dramatic impacts on lake ice phenology in northern latitudes.
