Inter-annual variation of meteorological conditions and their effects on snow and ice thickness in an Arctic lake Unari (67.14° N, 25.73° E) were investigated for winters 1980/1981–2012/2013. The lake snow and ice thicknesses were modelled applying a thermodynamic model, and the results were compare...
