Water in lochs and reservoirs in Scotland have undergone "rapid and extensive climate change driven warming" in recent years, a new report has revealed.
The report by Centre of Expertise for Waters (Crew) found that 97 per cent of monitored lochs and reservoirs had increased in temperature over a four-year period from 2015 to 2019.
The majority warmed by up to 1C per year during the period while nine per cent rose by more, and some by up to 1.3C.
