Buoy-based temperature profiling in the Bavarian Lakes

In summertime a temperature stratification occurs in deep lakes – the surface water is warm, but deep down the water is cold. This has considerable influence on the nutrient balance and the biological habitat in these lakes. Due to generally higher air temperatures induced by the climate change, both change and have effects on the life conditions of the ecosystems in the lakes. Researchers use OTT buoys and the OTT net DL datalogger to study the long term effects of climate change on the Bavaraian lakes.
