Measurement of 1 vertical profile is sufficient Horiontal and Vertical Mixing Times Diffusion of a Peak of a Conservative Tracer Vertical transport in stratified lakes: usually v 0 (no water in/outflow at depth) for uniform layer we assume K = constant Transport equation (1 D): Solution for Initial condition of a peak C(,0) = m( 0 ): C C K t m C,t e K t 0 4K t Gaussian bell curve with standard deviation or variance : K t or K t Diffusive mixing length L mix, fusive mixing time mix : L K mix mix 11 1

Convection The convection heat transfer mode is comprised of two mechanisms. In addition to energy transfer due to random molecular motion (diffusion), energy is also transferred by the bulk, or macroscopic,
