17 Vertical Mass Transport

18 Application to Vertical Mass Transport turbulent diffusion coefficient thermocline heat transfer coefficient

19 Calculation of the Thermocline Heat Transfer Coefficient Epilimnion Heat Balance change in heat tributary heat in discharge heat out surface heat flux thermocline heat exchange

20 Calculation of the Thermocline Heat Transfer Coefficient Hypolimnion Heat Balance change in heat thermocline heat exchange assumes no direct heating of hypolimnion or sediments upper mixed layer (~epilimnion) lower mixed layer (~hypolimnion) thermoclinev t ∙A s

21 Calculation of the Thermocline Heat Transfer Coefficient Canceling the  and C p terms, dividing by V h and expanding … And defining … Yields … uml lml

22 Calculation of the Thermocline Heat Transfer Coefficient and re-arranging, yields … Which, for T h at the beginning of the calculation = Th i, yields … further re-arranging, yields … where a plot of t s versus term yields 1/v t as the slope term

26 For diffusion calculation, need to choose an interval where T e is stable and T h is warming. Dollar Bay – Temperature Calculations Hypolimnion temperature mass balance.

27 Sediment oxygen demand reflects the diffusion of oxygen into the sediment to meet the metabolic needs of microorganisms participating in the aerobic decomposition of organic matter. SOD is also exerted through the aerobic oxidation of reduced species byproducts of anaerobic respiration. The mass balance, for SOD alone is … Sediment Oxygen Demand uml lml

28 For the SOD calculation, we need to choose the interval of oxygen depletion. Dollar Bay – Oxygen Calculations
