Abstract
Lake thermal dynamics have been considerably impacted by climate change, with potential adverse effects on aquatic ecosystems. To better understand the potential impacts of future climate change on lake thermal dynamics and related processes, the use of mathematical models is essential. In this study, we provide a comprehensive review of lake water temperature modeling. We begin by discussing the physical concepts that regulate thermal dynamics in lakes, which serve as a primer for the description of process‐based models. We then provide an overview of different sources of observational water temperature data, including in situ monitoring and satellite Earth observations, used in the field of lake water temperature modeling. We classify and review the various lake water temperature models available, and then discuss model performance, including commonly used performance metrics and optimization methods. Finally, we analyze emerging modeling approaches, including forecasting, digital twins, combining process‐based modeling with deep learning, evaluating structural model differences through ensemble modeling, adapted water management, and coupling of climate and lake models. This review is aimed at a diverse group of professionals working in the fields of limnology and hydrology, including ecologists, biologists, physicists, engineers, and remote sensing researchers from the private and public sectors who are interested in understanding lake water temperature modeling and its potential applications. Plain Language Summary: Lake thermal dynamics are fundamental in controlling mixing processes and have significant implications for biological and geochemical processes. Consequently, the impacts of climate change on these dynamics can have severe consequences for the health of lakes and their aquatic ecosystems. In this context, mathematical models are essential for understanding the potential effects of future climate change on lake thermal dynamics and related processes. This manuscript offers a comprehensive review of lake water temperature modeling. It covers the fundamental physical concepts that govern thermal dynamics in lakes and provides an overview of various sources of observational water temperature data, including in situ monitoring and satellite data used in these models. The study evaluates different types of lake water temperature models, including statistical, process‐based, and hybrid models. It explores emerging modeling approaches such as forecasting, digital twins, combining process‐based modeling with deep learning, ensemble modeling, and climate‐lake models coupling. Model performance is also discussed, highlighting suggested evaluation metrics and providing a comprehensive analysis of the state‐of‐the‐art optimization methods to assess model accuracy. This review targets researchers in limnology, hydrology, ecology, biology, physics, engineering, and remote sensing from the private and public sectors interested in lake water temperature modeling and its applications.
