Abstract
This paper deals with a man-made pycnocline which was induced by a causeway constructedacross the Great Salt Lake. The pycnocline is stable with a density gradient of 100 kg/m 4, and the mixing across it is characterized by a diffusion coefficient which is one quarter of the molecular heat conductance. It is shown that the conversion rate of kinetic to potential energy by mixing is a good parameter with small variations. It is argued that protection of the southern arm by wind breaks will bring the pycnocline to the surface and will convert the Great Salt Lake into a solar lake.
