Lb. Bezrukov et al., LUMINESCENCE OF THE BAIKAL WATER AS AN IN STRUMENT FOR STUDYING LAKE DYNAMICS, Izvestia Akademii nauk. Rossijskaa akademia nauk. Fizika atmosfery iokeana, 34(1), 1998, pp. 97-103
Some effects of luminescence of the Baikal water are described. It is
proposed to use this for studying hydrodynamic processes in the lake.
From data on the depth course of the intensity of luminescence, the co
nclusion is drawn that the intensity of the vertical water exchange in
Lake Baikal is high, including that outside the periods of homothermy
. Of particular interest are rapid variations in the intensity of the
luminescence, which attest to a nonstationary nature of deep waters.
