Abstract
A new equation describing the stability of a lake, as conceptually defined by Schmidt, is developed to supply information on the contribution of each lake layer to stability. It is analogous in form to the expression derived by Birge for his concept of direct work of the wind and may be combined with that to yield a curve for direct total work as a function of lake depth.Keywords
