Capitalization is used when an item is expected to be consumed over a long period of time. If a cost is capitalized, it is charged to expense over time through the use of amortization (for intangible assets) or depreciation (for tangible assets).
As water temperature rises, oxygen solubility decreases. On a cool summer night, a lakeâs temperature might be 60Â° F. At 100% air saturation, this lakeâs dissolved oxygen levels would be at 9.66 mg/L. When the sun rises and warms up the lake to 70Â° F, 100% air saturation should equate to 8.68 mg/L DO Â³.
What causes lake effect snow? Lake effect snow is caused when a very cold winter air mass flows over the relatively warmer waters of a large lake. Because lake effect snow occurs downwind of lakes, one location can receive large snowfall accumulations, while another location just a few miles away receives little or no snow.
