Monitoring of three moraine lakes (two of which are located on frontal moraines, and one is lateral) lasted some years. It was defined that each lake has individual temperature mode which depends partly by air temperature and much more by incoming melted waters, volume of their accumulation and type of underlying rocks. Type of underlying rock in which the lake kettle is formed has decisive importance. Direct contact of lake water with glacier ice gives its temperature during ablation period of 2.54 °С or in 3.1 times lower, than in frontal lakes. That’s why the dam quickly collapses and the lake volume increases. Dams of the lakes located on frontal moraines are subject of destruction much less. Dynamics of these lakes is caused by retreat of glaciers, and the maximum depths are fixed in the central part of a lake. Water temperature during the cold period remains here steadily positive and promotes formation of filtration channels in the layer with moraine sediments which almost without ice. The increasing of lakes occurs due to ice ablation from the nearest glacier. Precipitations, if they influence to the change of water level in lakes, are not essential.
