Vertical Temperature Structure in Crater Lake, Oregon
Neal VT, Neshyba SJ, Denner WW. 1972. Vertical Temperature Structure in Crater Lake, Oregon. Limnology and Oceanography. 17:451-454
Vertical temperature profiles taken at different seasons in Crater Lake show an isothermal layer at middepth (295 m) with hyperadiabatic temperatures below that point. The lake is apparently meromictic, with circulation limited to the waters above middepth.
