Abstract

Effects of potential climate change on water quality of large lakes are discussed, with particular reference to impacts on various terms in water quality models. The main impacts are associated with hydrodynamic considerations such as changes in seasonal stratification and temperature regimes, as well as general circulation and mixing in the lake. Secondary effects on loadings are also expected, due to potential changes in precipitation and distribution of wetlands. Impacts of these changes are described in the context of water quality models applied to the Great Lakes.
