GLM
The General Lake Model (GLM) is a water balance and one-dimensional vertical stratification hydrodynamic model. It accounts for the effect of inflows/outflows, mixing and surface heating and cooling, including the effect of ice cover. It is suited to longer-term investigations ranging from seasons to decades, and for coupling with biogeochemical models to explore the role that stratification and vertical mixing has on biogeochemical and ecological dynamics of lakes.
