Ep. Anisimova et al., THE ROLE OF AERATION IN FORMATION OF THER MAL REGIME OF A GEOTHERMAL LAKE, Izvestia Akademii nauk. Rossijskaa akademia nauk. Fizika atmosfery iokeana, 32(2), 1996, pp. 290-295
The results of investigation of temperature regime of a geothermal lak
e in Kamchatka Peninsula are presented. Power of bottom thermal stream
in the lake was estimated. The components of thermal balance on the s
urface of the lake were determined, and the Dalton and Stenton numbers
were calculated. Specific functions of bottom hot gaseous spring and
heat emission of the lake through the interface reservoir-atmosphere f
or formation of convective current, determining thermal regime of the
lake, were detected.
