Why is the overturn process important for lakes that undergo stratification?

  1. It prevents the formation of ice cover.
  2. It ensures thorough mixing of oxygen, phytoplankton, and nutrients.
  3. It leads to the accumulation of sediments at the bottom.
  4. It only affects the temperature of the surface water.

    What causes the sinking of water during the autumn (fall) overturn?

    1. The surface water gets warmer and sinks.
    2. The surface water cools down to 4°C, becoming denser and sinking.
    3. The density of water decreases as it cools.
    4. Increased solar radiation causes the water to become heavier.

      Which of the following statements about spring overturn is correct?

      1. It occurs when the surface water cools down to 4°C.
      2. Increased solar radiation melts the ice, and water at 4°C sinks.
      3. It is primarily driven by the cooling of air temperatures.
      4. The process involves warm surface water sinking to the bottom.

        What are the two main seasons when lake water overturn occurs?

        1. Spring and Autumn (Fall)
        2. Summer and Winter
        3. Late Winter and Early Spring
        4. Late Summer and Early Winter

          What is the primary process described in the provided text regarding lake water circulation?

          1. Lake water circulation occurs annually in summer and winter.
          2. The process of overturn involves the mixing of lake water layers.
          3. Overturn primarily helps in distributing dissolved gases and nutrients within the lake.
