Abstract
Freezing of lakes is described using a simplified one-dimensional model, which gives ice thickness, ice growth rates, and ice surface temperature as a function of time. Model data for a specific lake with known meteorological conditions are compared to estimated ice thickness using a simple optical method. Finally, more advanced potential students projects are briefly discussed and results of a numerical solution are compared to the simplified model.
