Physics of Lakes Volume 3: Methods of Understanding Lakes as Components of the Geophysical Environment

The ongoing thread in this volume of Physics of Lakes is the presentation of different methods of investigation for processes taking place in real lakes with a view to understanding lakes as components of the geophysical environment. It is divided into three parts. Part I is devoted to numerical mod...
