Heat and Stratification
Key ideasThe Heat budget of a lakeDefinitionsThe components of the heat budget: (1-A) Rs +RLd –Rlup-LE-H +Qin-Qout-Qsed+M = rate of change in storageIndividual fluxes:
Shortwave radiation (from last class, mostly)Longwave radiation: Boltzmann eqn, Wein displacement law, emissivityLongwave back radiation: sky, clouds, canopyEvaporative heat fluxSensible HeatIce formation and melting
StratificationDefinitionsLocal stabilityWater column stabilityRelationships with lake morphometry and size
Vertical Mixing and entrainmentQuantitative modelsEmpirical: mass tracer or heat as a tracer
