| Summary | These findings have critical implications for local communities, industries, and ecosystems. Declining icethickness not only compromises winter transportation routes, which are vital for resource extraction and com-munity connectivity, but also accelerates lake warming, alters mixing regimes, and potentially impacts aquatichabitats and regional hydrological processes. The data generated through this study present valuable resources forforecasting and managing the ecological and socioeconomic repercussions of changing ice dynamics. Futureresearch can build on this approach by incorporating more detailed bathymetric data, higher‐resolution meteo-rological inputs, and explicit ice–snow feedback mechanisms |
| Local Relevance | This report is highly relevant to the Northwest Territories (NWT) as it provides detailed, region-specific evidence of declining lake ice thickness and shorter ice seasons. These changes directly affect winter road safety, transportation, community access, and northern ecosystems in the North Slave Region. |
