Differential Contributions From Chemo‐ and Photoautotrophy to Winter Primary Production in a North Temperate Freshwater System Changing winter conditions influence snow and ice accumulation in inland waterbodies Diverse communities of primary producers are responsible for the fixation of inorganic carbon year-round Guil...

Pleased to share our new work, out this week in jgrbiogeo.bsky.social! We looked at how different guilds of aquatic microbial primary producers respond to changing winter conditions in a multi-year study. Great work led by an @michigantech.bsky.social M.S. grad! #winterlimnology shorturl.at/Lsqoy

Ice-out dates reported by CLMP Spring Total Phosphorus volunteers, 2025 | Created with Datawrapper Hover over a colored county to reveal the average reported ice-out dates. Click on a county to make the information

Here's a neat little map. Inland lake ice-out dates reported by volunteers in the MiCorps Cooperative Lakes Monitoring Program. The average date ranged across two months! March 7 to May 8, depending on location.

🧊🌊Glad to share a collaborative effort with some excellent colleagues: 100 questions to shape the future of #WinterLimnology. We highlight how in situ #Monitoring, #RemoteSensing, and #Modeling can be integrated to advance #LakeIce research.

So many questions still open - so much left to discover.

A woman in brown waders, a bright orange vest, checkered button-up top, and green hat walks towards the camera. She is walking in a creek that is partially frozen over, chunks of ice floating around her legs.

Had the opportunity to become a limnologist for the day over the weekend! Cold day for it, but 100% worth the experience!

Pretty ok day sampling! When we started the day it was 15F and still but 35F and windy by the end. Every stream had at least an inch of ice, maybe more. Only one on our route was inaccessible. And my new neoprene socks kept my feet toasty in waders! #WinterLimnology

Environmental and societal consequences of winter ice loss from lakes Climate change is reducing winter ice cover on lakes; yet, the full societal and environmental consequences of this ice loss are poorly understood. The socioeconomic implications of declining ice incl...

New paper! Loss of lake ice has wide-ranging environmental and societal consequences. Ice loss will affect culture, economy, water quality, fisheries, and biodiversity, weather, climate. Read it: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
