英文摘要 | The water resource is severely compromised by climate change, and its availability and quality can no longer be taken for granted, even in places considered pristine, such as mountains. In this study, we evaluated the water colour variability of three artificial mountain lakes located in a relatively small basin (Western Italian Alps) at high elevations, and related this variability to the local climate conditions of the hydrological basin to which they belong. We estimated the dominant wavelength (DW) of lake water from Sentinel-2 acquisitions for the period 2017-2022, performing a chromaticity analysis. We correlated DW with climatic parameters recorded by two automated weather stations. Average DW varies from 497 nm of Serru Lake and Agnel Lake to 512 nm of Lake Ceresole, where DW varies seasonally (variation of 75-100 nm in one year). During April-July, the DW of Lake Ceresole is significative correlated with air temperatures and snow cover (-0.8 and +0.8, respectively). During August-October, the relationship with temperature decreases to -0.5, and a correlation of 0.5 with the amount of rainfall appears. This work shows that mountain lake waters can exhibit variable quality (expressed here by water colour) in response to meteorological and hydrological conditions and events. |
