As in oceans, large-scale coherent circulations such as gyres and eddies are ubiquitous
features in large lakes that are subject to the Coriolis force. They play a crucial role in the …

Notwithstanding the continuing advancement of our understanding of the broader
ecosystem functioning in Lake Ontario, emerging evidence suggests that there are …

In large lakes subject to the Coriolis force, basin-scale gyres and mesoscale eddies, ie
rotating coherent water masses, play a key role in spreading biochemical materials and …

Basin‐scale quasi‐geostrophic gyres are common features of large lakes subject to Coriolis
force. Cyclonic gyres are often characterized by dome‐shaped thermoclines that form due to …

One of the largest freshwater estuarine systems on Earth, Green Bay receives freshwater
runoff from its land watershed and cold-water intrusions from Lake Michigan. Southern …

The water quality and resources of Lake Ontario's nearshore ecosystem undergo
heightened stress, particularly along the northwest shoreline. Hydrodynamic processes …

Abstract The circulation in Lake Ontario is well known from past field and modeling studies.
However, apparent changes in wind patterns, possibly due to climate change, have resulted …

Nuisance growth of the alga Cladophora has been a critical issue in the Laurentian Great
Lakes for decades. Although loading of total phosphorus (TP) has been below target values …

Water quality degradation, in the form of undesirable algae, occurs near the Nottawasaga
River mouth and along Wasaga Beach, southeastern Georgian Bay. The ability to manage …

In large lakes, basin-scale gyres and submesoscale eddies, ie, rotating coherent water
masses, play a key role in spreading biochemical materials and energy throughout the …
