Thermal Mediation by Littoral Wetlands and Impact on Lake Intrusion Depth

Lake inflow dynamics can be affected by the thermal mediation provided by shallow littoral regions such as wetlands. In this study, wetland thermal mediation is evaluated using a linearized dead-zone model. Its impact on lake inflow dynamics is then assessed by applying the model sequentially to the...
