= = = Temperature =

What affects the temperature?
 * velocity and depth
 * # of species in the water
 * season

(temperature of Lake Erie)

(depth of Lake Erie)

Shallow water = warmer Deep water = colder

= Affecting Wildlife = Changes in temperature affect many kinds and number of species Some species that can survive in a wide range of temperatures are:

(Carp)

(and Catfish)

However, some aren't as lucky. Some species can only survive in certain temperatures like:

(trout)

(and algae)

= Humans impact =

Some say global warming is rising the water temperatures, therefore, the burning of fossil fuels is a way humans change water temperature.
