The role of the steep density gradient in metalimnion is discussed as a factor slowing down the rate of sinking of organic matter. As a result, the thermocline layer, which is in most cases immediately below the lowest extents of the euphotic layer, prevents a substantial part of the nutrients from falling out of the cycling in epilimnion and provides for the nonfluctuating and high standing crop and production of phytoplankton in the limnetic zone.}, type={Text}, title={Stratification of kinetic origin and its biological consequences in a Neotrophical man-made lake}, URL={http://rcin.org.pl/Content/74197/PDF/WA058_86759_P2840-T24_Eko-Pol-A-Nr-2.pdf}, volume={24}, number={2}, journal={Ekologia Polska}, publisher={Polish Scientific Publishers}, keywords={thermal stratification, ecology, Panama, Madden Lake}, }
