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).

Temperature and precipitation trends in Canada during the 20th century

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed trends in Canadian temperature and precipitation during the 20th century using recently updated and adjusted station data and found that from 1900 to 1998, the annual mean temperature has increased between 0.5 and 1.5°C in the south.

Quaternary glaciations : extent and chronology

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an up-to-date, detailed overview of the Quaternary glaciations all over the world, not only with regard to stratigraphy but also with regards to major glacial landforms and the extent of the respective ice sheets.

Disappearing Arctic Lakes

TL;DR: The spatial pattern of lake disappearance suggests (i) that thaw and "breaching" of permafrost is driving the observed losses, by enabling rapid lake draining into the subsurface; and (ii) a conceptual model in which high-latitude warming ofpermafrost triggers an initial but transitory phase of lake and wetland expansion, followed by their widespread disappearance.
