Synopsis
Excerpt from A Primer of Basic Concepts of Lakeshore Processes
The motion of water in a lake is the result of many complex processes involving the interaction of the hydrosphere, atmosphere, and lithosphere. Present knowledge of water motion is a result of both theoretical and empirical investigations. Essential results of the physical theory along with a discussion of currents are described here in a qualitative manner.
