  bibo_abstract:
  - Lentic waters integrate atmosphere and catchment processes, and thus ultimately
    capture climate signals. However, studies of climate warming effects on lentic
    waters usually do not sufficiently account for a change in heat flux from the
    catchment through altered inflow temperature and discharge under climate change.
    This is particularly relevant for reservoirs, which are highly impacted by catchment
    hydrology and may be affected by upstream reservoirs or pre‐dams. This study explicitly
    quantified how the catchment and pre‐dams modify the thermal response of Rappbode
    Reservoir, Germany's largest drinking water reservoir system, to climate change.
    We established a catchment‐lake modeling chain in the main reservoir and its two
    pre‐dams utilizing the lake model GOTM, the catchment model mHM, and the stream
    temperature model Air2stream, forced by an ensemble of climate projections under
    RCP2.6 and 8.5 warming scenarios. Results exhibited a warming of 0.27/0.15°C decade<jats:sup>−1</jats:sup>
    for the surface/bottom temperatures of the main reservoir, with approximately
    8%/24% of this warming attributed to the catchment warming, respectively. The
    catchment warming amplified the deep water warming more than at the surface, contrary
    to the atmospheric warming effect, and advanced stratification by about 1 week,
    while having a minor impact on stratification intensity. On the other hand, pre‐dams
    reduced the inflow temperature into the main reservoir in spring, and consequently
    lowered the hypolimnetic temperature and postponed stratification onset. This
    shielded the main reservoir from climate warming, although overall the contribution
    of pre‐dams was minimal. Altogether, our study highlights the importance of catchment
    alterations and seasonality when projecting reservoir warming, and provides insights
    into catchment‐reservoir coupling under climate change.@eng
