  • Long-term measurements of lake temperatures are essential to providing insights into local and regional changes in climate since large, still water bodies effectively act as a high-frequency filter. Ives Lake is a 30.7 m deep water body in northern Marquette County, in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Beginning in 2013, temperature readings have been collected hourly from a string of twelve sensors located near the deepest point of the lake (approximately 46.84874 N lat, 87.84895 W long; identified by sonar survey in 2010 by first author). Measurements are continuing. The purpose of the project is to collect a data record of sufficient duration to determine if water temperatures are warming, and if the dates of autumn lake turnover are shifting toward later in the year.
