Description
Summary:The article describes the characteristics of water circulation in the coastal Lake Gardno. The water cycle is based on water balance data calculated for the period 2003–2007 concerning hydrological years, including the components of horizontal and vertical exchange. Due to the coastal location of the lake, particular attention was paid to the share of the seawater in the lake water cycle. It was found that the inflow of sea water accounts for 10% of the total inflow, while inflow from the land accounts for 86% of the total.
