Zusammenfassung |
This paper provides a reply to a comment from Peters (2014) on our recent
effort focused on evaluating changes in streamflow input to Lake Athabasca,
Canada. Lake Athabasca experienced a 21.2% decline in streamflow input
between 1960 and 2010 that has led to a marked decline in its water levels in
recent decades. A reassessment of trends in naturalized Lake Athabasca water
levels shows insignificant changes from our previous findings reported in
Rasouli et al. (2013), and hence our previous conclusions remain unchanged.
The reply closes with recommendations for future research to minimize
uncertainties in historical assessments of trends in Lake Athabasca water
levels and to better project its future water levels driven by climate change
and anthropogenic activities in the Athabasca Lake basin. |
