“…Predicted climate changes suggest that winter water level regulation may progressively carry over into summer months (Magee et al 2019). To understand the ecological effects of such a shift, we strongly recommend that water levels be monitored year-round, as recent evidence suggests summer water level fluctuations impact water quality more (e.g., cyanobacteria blooms; Bakker and Hilt 2016) than winter drawdowns (Elchyshyn et al 2018). Integrating knowledge of the natural range of variability of unregulated lake levels over long time scales (i.e., decades; Hofmann et al 2008, Molinos et al 2015) could help to predict future water level changes in regulated lakes within similar hydromorphic characteristics and direct management to mitigate and anticipate related water quality issues (Lisi and Hein 2019).…”

“…The WD metrics provide new insights into the characteristics of this artificial hydrologic alteration across MA lakes. A few studies have analyzed drawdown trends for groups of lakes in particular regions [2,59]. Some drawdown studies have calculated similar water-level metrics using in situ data [1,2], but the remote sensing-derived measurements allow assessment at broader scales.…”

“…More recently, Wengrat et al (2018) evaluated patterns of spatial and temporal biodiversity in seven tropical reservoirs in Brazil, concluding that eutrophication leads to homogenization of the diatom assemblage, with significant loss of species over time. Despite the increased interest in reservoir paleolimnology (Tibby et al 2010;Liu et al 2012;Elchyshyn et al 2018), few studies focus on implications for management, and the magnitude of environmental change in reservoirs is poorly understood relative to natural waterbodies.…”
