Hyperpycnal flows control the persistence and flushing of hypoxic high conductivity bottom water in a High Arctic lake
In the deepest portions of many lakes, zones of high conductivity bottom water (HCBW) depleted in dissolved oxygen (DO) are present. HCBW and DO are important for determining benthic diversity and abundance, nutrients and contaminant cycling, and understanding the long-term evolution of lakes. We in...
