Abstract The goal of the research was to identify the mixing features that distinguish wind forced, medium‐size fjord‐type lakes near the Arctic Circle from systems of similar geometry, but in a temperate climate. Experimental data and the results of 3D numerical hydrodynamic simulations were analyz...
