Sedimentary Records of High-Mountain Lakes in Arid Russian Altai: First Results of Studies (Last Glacial Maximum–Holocene)
AbstractSedimentary sequences up to 4.71 m thick and up to ~24 ka were made by drilling the bottom sediments in three lakes of the Boguty depression....

Paleohydrological changes during the Late Holocene recorded in the sediments of two mountain lakes in the Tatra Mountains (Central Europe)
Changes in local hydrological and climatic conditions over the last 5500 years have been reconstructed based on geochemical and paleobiological...

Lakes of the Cordillera Blanca: Typology, Inventory, Bathymetry and Evolution
Cordillera Blanca is well-known for its abundant bright blue-colored lakes, creating splendid mountain sceneries. But it is not only their aesthetic... -
Proglacial Lakes
Ice sheets and glaciers contain in solid phase most of the world's freshwater resources. Their ablation zone releases liquid meltwater that may... -
Sedimentation Rates in Lakes of the Caucasus and Their Changes in the Late Holocene
AbstractThe sedimentation rates in lakes of the Caucasus in the Late Holocene are estimated on the basis of radioisotopic dating. The lakes are...

Freezing of Lakes
Lakes have a wide variability in size and shape. They are potential to freezing when winter air temperature goes below the freezing point far and... -
Glacial lakes map** using satellite images and deep learning algorithms in Northwestern Indian Himalayas
Global climate change's influence on the Himalayan glaciers has initiated glacier retreats, resulting in the development and evolution of glacial...

Ice-Covered Lakes Environment
Ice cover on a lake introduces challenges for nature and human life. Under an ice cover, it is dark and quiet, photosynthesis is limited by the light... -
Biogeochemical Features of Functioning of Small Arctic Lakes of the Khibiny Mountains under Climatic and Environmental Changes
Natural and anthropogenic factors affecting the composition of waters of the Arctic mountain lakes of the Khibiny alkaline massif were determined and...
