![]() Lakes are warmed by the sun and mixed by the wind. Since then, examples have been reported from many other parts of the world. The term was introduced in 1935 by an Austrian limnologist, Ingo Findenegg, to describe the circulation behavior of subalpine lakes in Corinthia. Most deep lakes follow a seasonal cycle of stratification and complete mixing, but meromixis is a condition in which a lake does not mix completely. Meromictic lakes are unusual bodies of water that fascinate scientists from many disciplines. Likens, in Encyclopedia of Inland Waters, 2009 Introduction
