Lake Superior Water Temperature Increasing At Twice The Rate Of Air Temperature
Via Yahoo News - Scientists wary of Lake Superior warming
Here is Dr. Austin's page at the University of Minnesota Duluth - Rapid warming of Lake Superior
Dr. Austin's page presents data and graphs about the temperature changes of Lake Superior. What is interesting is Neebish Island's own St. Marys River, up by the Locks, serves as an excellent datum point: At this location, a daily temperature measurement has been made since 1906! It's one of the longest directly measured water temperature records anywhere in the world.
