TO A QUESTION ABOUT THERMAL CONVECTION IN THE COASTAL ZONE OF THE CURONIAN LAGOON

In the given work the circulation caused in the various speed of warming up (cooling) of shallow and deep-water zones of pool (the phenomenon of the thermal bar) is simulated. The thermal bar is formed in the spring at heating a coastal part of a reservoir above +4 °C and in the autumn during cooling below\ +4 °C. Conditions of the thermal bar occurrence and dependence of circulation on specificity of warming up above underwater slopes with different biases are shown. Influence of the thermal bar on ecology system of large lagoons as it divides two zones with different characteristics of water that defines spatial distinctions of plankton populations is considered. It is supposed to analyse in the further influence of parameters on arising circulation and to compare results to experimental data.
