✦ Synopsis

Thermal profile development, rates of heat uptake and annual heat budgets are presented for two monomictic lakes, Whatcom and Washington, in the Puget Sound lowlands of Washington State. The rates of heat gain in the lakes were found to be significantly affected by lake morphometry. In turn, the differing rates of heat gain affected the annual heat budgets.
