Amplified surface temperature response of cold, deep lakes to inter-annual air temperature variability

Abstract Summer lake surface water temperatures (LSWTs) have previously been shown to respond more rapidly to climatic warming compared to local summer surface air temperatures (SATs). In a global-scale analysis, we explore the factors underpinning the observation of an amplified response of summer...
