Assessing the influence of lake and watershed attributes on snowmelt bypass at thermokarst lakes

TL;DR: In this paper , isotope data were used to estimate the amount of lake water replaced by freshet and to observe how the water sources of lakes changed in response to the freshet.

Modern Eastern Canadian Arctic Lake Water Isotopes Exhibit Latitudinal Patterns in Inflow Seasonality and Minimal Evaporative Enrichment

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors used modern lake water isotopes (δ18O and δ2H) collected between 1994-1997 and 2017-2021 from a transect of sites spanning a Québec-to-Ellesmere Island gradient to evaluate the effects of inflow seasonality and evaporative enrichment on the lake water composition of lake water.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ecosystem responses of shallow thermokarst lakes to climate-driven hydrological change: Insights from long-term monitoring of periphytic diatom community composition at Old Crow Flats (Yukon, Canada).

TL;DR: In this article , periphytic diatom community composition in biofilms accrued on artificial-substrate samplers at 14 lakes collected mostly annually during 2008-2019 CE was analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydrological, meteorological, and watershed controls on the water balance of thermokarst lakes between Inuvik and Tuktoyaktuk, Northwest Territories, Canada

TL;DR: In this article , water isotope data were used to calculate the average isotope composition of lake source water (δI) and the ratio of evaporation to inflow (E/I).

Using Water Isotope Tracers to Develop the Hydrological Component of a Long-Term Aquatic Ecosystem Monitoring Program for a Northern Lake-Rich Landscape

TL;DR: In this paper, the hydrological component of an aquatic ecosystem monitoring program that addresses concerns of Parks Canada (Vuntut National Park) and the Vuntut Gwitchin First Nation about changing water levels of Old Crow Flats (OCF), Yukon, Canada, a 5600km2 thermokarst landscape recognized nationally and internationally for its ecological, historical, and cultural significance.

Arctic greening associated with lengthening growing seasons in Northern Alaska

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focused on one area of the northern Alaskan Arctic using high spatial resolution (4 m) multispectral satellite imagery from DigitalGlobe™ to analyze the greening trend near Utqiaġvik (formerly known as Barrow) over 14 years from 2002 to 2016.
Journal ArticleDOI

Response of the Porcupine and Old Crow rivers in northern Yukon, Canada, to Holocene climatic change

TL;DR: In this article, a major aggradation took place from 8000 BP to 4000 BP in the Porcupine and Old Crow rivers, northern Yukon, as a consequence of an increase in flow and the result of a perturbation of the permafrost active layer following the early-Holocene climatic warming of northwestern Canada.

Tracking hydrological responses of a thermokarst lake in the Old Crow Flats (Yukon Territory, Canada) to recent climate variability using aerial photographs and paleolimnological methods

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the potential of combining aerial photograph time series with paleolimnological analyses to track changes in hydrological conditions of a thermokarst lake in the Old Crow Flats (OCF), Canada, and to identify their causes.
