Abstract

Data of many-year observations (1953–2011) have been used to study the effect of changes in regional climate on water surface temperature in different types of Karelian lakes. Positive trends are identified in water temperature in the lakes over ice-free period; the amplitudes and periods of oscillations have been determined.
