Abstract: The impact of climate warming on basin hydrology and lake responses is examined for the Great Lakes region and also considered for other climatic areas. Based on case studies which considered observations, steady-state and transient GCM scenarios, trans-position climates, and responses of lakes in a range of climatic zones, it is demonstrated that climate warming can have significant impact on basin hydrological components and can affect thermal and stratification characteristics of lakes.
