Section 4 HYDROMETEOROLOGY: CLIMATE AND HYDROLOGY OF THE GREAT LAKES
The climate of the Great Lakes Region is determined by the general westerly atmospheric circulation, the latitude, and the local modifying influence of the lakes. Due to the lake effect, the regional climate alternates between continental and semi-marine. The semi-marine climate is more consistent contiguous to the lakes, but with favorable meterological conditions, it may penetrate deeply inla...
متن کاملRecovery of sequences and extent of ancient lake in Jazmourian Playa based on lake terraces in Quaternary
Extended abstract 1-Introduction The natural environment is affected by climate, and its changes have different geomorphic forms. The dominance of different climatic phases and changes in the balance of matter and energy cause different shaping systems in the environment. Ancient lakes are one of the geomorphic forms of the Quaternary period, and today many of these lakes are either complete...
متن کاملHolocene climatic change and the development of the lake-effect snowbelt in Michigan, USA
Lake-effect snow is an important constraint on ecological and socio-economic systems near the North American Great Lakes. Little is known about the Holocene history of lake-effect snowbelts, and it is difficult to decipher how lake-effect snowfall abundance affected ecosystem development. We conducted oxygen-isotope analysis of calcite in lake-sediment cores from northern Lower Michigan to infe...
متن کاملبررسی اثر تغییر پوشش سطحی بر تغییرات رژیم دما، بارش و رطوبت در بخشهای شرقی و غربی دریاچه ارومیه
Introduction Many factors controlling atmospheric parameters, includes lake and seas, mountains, urban areas and etc. One of this factors is land cover. If the land cover is changing, then the nature of climate will change. One of the important part of land cove are aquatic bodies. Lakes are considered as natural controls on temperature, rain fall and moisture regime in interior continents. ...
متن کاملPaleoecology of a Northern Michigan Lake and the Relationship amongClimate, Vegetation, and Great Lakes Water Levels
We reconstructed Holocene water-level and vegetation dynamics based on pollen and plant macrofossils from a coastal lake in Upper Michigan. Our primary objective was to test the hypothesis that major fluctuations in Great Lakes water levels resulted in part from climatic changes. We also used our data to provide temporal constraints to the mid-Holocene dry period in Upper Michigan. From 9600 to...
