Transportation, recreation, provisioning of food and ice, and religious ceremonies are only some of the ways people use lake ice (Knoll et al. 2019). For example, winter ice roads provide critical transportation infrastructure for remote communities in the Arctic to ship food, fuel, and medical supplies, in addition to employment and social networks over the dark, cold winters (Hori et al. 2017). Countless kids across Canada, Sweden, Russia, and countries across the Northern Hemisphere have learned how to skate and play hockey at local frozen lakes and ponds. Millions of people attend ice festivals around the world each winter, with the Harbin International Ice and Snow festival in China being the largest, attracting 18 million visitors and producing $4.4 billion in revenue annually (https://www.hindustantimes.com/travel/theworld-s-largest-ice-festival-features-massivestunning-sculptures-see-pics/story-b9g0rNY56 ylYRlgK3Y2FnI.html, accessed on 20 January 2023; www.icefestivalharbin.com, accessed on 20 January 2023). Last but not least, ice fishing provides a source of recreation, and also protein sources, to northern communities. For example, a large retired and unemployed community angle for perch, roach, and ruffe in the frozen Lake Peipsi (Russia, Estonia, Latvia) and sell their catch to their local community over the winter (Orru et al. 2014). Because of the large importance of lake ice to northern communities, long-term observations of ice records spanning decades to centuries exist for lakes and rivers around the world (Magnuson et al. 2000). Warmer winters are contributing to the loss of lake ice and the consequential decline in winter lake ice activities (Magnuson et al. 2000; Knoll et al. 2019). Lakes are losing their ice cover at alarming rates owing to anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gas emissions (Sharma et al. 2021b) with unprecedented rates of ice loss expected by the end of the 21 century (Sharma et al. 2019). For example, in the last 25 years, lakes have been observed losing ice at rates of 107 days per century, at rates six times faster than any other time period in the last 100 years (Sharma et al. 2021b). Lakes that froze reliably every winter are now beginning to experience ice-free winters (Sharma et al. 2019), with some of these lakes forecasted to permanently lose ice cover within this century if greenhouse gas emissions are not mitigated (Sharma et al. 2021a). Large, deep lakes in colder regions, in addition to small and large lakes found in regions where winter air temperatures hover below 0 C, such as in coastal, low-elevation, or more southerly regions, are at highest risk of ice-free winters (Sharma et al. 2019, 2021a). Lakes in the contiguous states of the United States of America are one of the most vulnerable regions to losing ice cover within this century (Sharma et al. 2019).

Unless these barriers are spotted and remedied, female scientists will remain as prominent casualties. In an effort to learn and raise awareness of the barriers and biases faced by women across the limnological community, the Gender and Science group (genderlimno.org) of the Iberian Society of Limnology (AIL) organized three activities during the 36th Congress of the International Society of Limnology (https://www.sil2022.org/) in Berlin, Germany (07–10 August 2022): (1) the workshop “Negotiating gender roles in academia—A courageous exploration”; (2) the exhibition “Women in Limnology”; and (3) the special session “Past, present and future of the herstory of limnology”. Here, we summarize the highlights and insights gained in that meeting and share what we see as the way forward. The workshop “Negotiating gender roles in academia—A courageous exploration” was facilitated by Sadhbh Ju arez-Bourke (connectingacademia.com; s.juarez.bourke@gmail.com), an intercultural facilitator, cultural coach, and sustainability scientist . The workshop was an invitation to explore gender roles, not from our usual intellectual perspective, but from the knowledge of the body (Fig. 1). Our body is the vehicle to our emotional experience, through which we experience the world and interpret objective reality (Jung et al. 2017). The purpose was to create a space to witness each other’s reality when it comes to gender roles with empathy, compassion, and humor, regardless of gender, political inclinations, or personal convictions. Through playful exercises we gently transitioned from the head-space we usually inhabit to being present in our body. From here, we explored our gender identity and roles within academia, allowing each participant their individual, private realizations. When coming back to share with the group, we found ourselves in a space of dialogue grounded in our authentic needs, rather than discussion framed by ideology. One of the workshop participants, Jun. Prof. E. Berger, kindly shared with us: “I have talked, read and thought so many times about gender inequality in society and academia in specific, growing tired of the debate. It was a great experience not to talk and exchange clever arguments with others, but to simply concentrate on how things feel and share those feelings. It was refreshing to let the body talk instead of the mind. The workshop weaved a subtle net of understanding and compassion between its participants that remained present during the duration of the conference.” The exhibition “Women in Limnology” consisted of a series of eight panels that were displayed during the conference (https://www. genderlimno.org/exhibition.html). The exhibition was developed in 2018 by more than 20 volunteers of the AIL Gender and Science group and has been displayed all over Europe ","PeriodicalId":40008,"journal":{"name":"Limnology and Oceanography Bulletin","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42767964","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, research on hydrology of mountain lakes remains focused on particular regions and related scientific perspectives on lake ecological shifts are still insufficient. Furthermore, the lack of strong nexus between scientists, stakeholders, and local community also promotes data gaps in mountain paleolimnology. Hence, it should be recognized that investigating the nexus between different stakeholders and global climate shifts as well as investigating the anthropogenic forcing factors in high-mountain lakes is fundamental for future hydrological studies.

Hundreds of remote sensing experts, practitioners, and end users convened in the same location to share their research, tools, and experiences with the larger community.

By highlighting these sessions, we hope to further bridge remote sensing developments and limnology, thereby expediting cross-pollination between these fields and encourage members of the ASLO community to contact presenters regarding their specific talks (https://pecora22.org/program/).</p><p>Among the talks centered on remote sensing of aquatic systems, Pecora 22 hosted related sessions that focused specifically on cutting edge advances in remote sensing of water quality and quantity. Together, these sessions spanned a range of topics, including calibration and validation of aquatic surface reflectances, detection of chlorophyll and cyanobacterial presence within and across aquatic systems, use of altimetry data to evaluate surface water dynamics, and macroscale syntheses of lake water quality trends. A common goal of these sessions was to highlight the breadth of remote sensing developments that enable more accurate measurements of surface water dynamics and water quality constituents.

Typically, these advances have included assessments of optically relevant water quality indicators—such as sediment, pigments, and dissolved organic matter—as well as water color. In many cases, the Landsat mission's data has also contributed to advance the characterization and mapping of coral and seagrass assemblages in marine environments, as well as the detection of surface algae and emergent vegetation in freshwater systems. Through Landsat's consistent multi-decadal thermal measurements and the derived high-quality surface temperature products, identifying trends and changes in water surface temperature due to climate variability and extreme weather patterns have also been made possible.
