The chemistry of the two parts of a freshwater lake, the epilimnion and the hypolimnion, is affected by biological processes and by circulation. |
|
The mean acoustic size of rising bubbles decreased in the hypolimnion but increased in the epilimnion. |
|
For the higher concentrations of nitrate and oxygen in the hypolimnion during weeks 15 to 25, another mechanism might be efficacious. |
|
MeHg accumulated in the hypolimnion of Lake 240 when oxygen was present. |
|
Water samples were taken from the epilimnion and hypolimnion in the deepest portion of the lake using a Kemmerer sampler. |
|
First, the colder, heavier water typically forms a layer near the bottom, which called the hypolimnion. |
|
The effect of hypolimnion reservoir releases on fish distribution and species diversity. |
|
The lowest level, or hypolimnion, is the coldest and, again, the temperature is fairly uniform. |
|
The lake was stratified throughout the summer, with the boundary between the epilimnion and the hypolimnion at a depth of 1 to 2 meters. |
|
With the onset of stratification, organic matter rapidly uses oxygen in the hypolimnion. |
|
The classification of lakes by thermal stratification presupposes lakes with sufficient depth to form a hypolimnion. |
|
The warm layer is called the epilimnion and the cold layer is called the hypolimnion. |
|
Aerators shall provide mixing and aeration of the hypolimnion without destratifying the lake. |
|
Deep reservoirs with multiple level draw off towers can discharge deep cold water into the downstream river greatly reducing the size of any hypolimnion. |
|
In case of a difference in salinity, the hypolimnion and epilimnion are separated not by a thermocline but by a halocline, which is sometimes referred to as a chemocline. |
