Kay, I ask in innocence: what happens when a lake gets a thick
enough crust of ice to allow ice fishing, and the erection of
protective "huts" on top...? When this breaks up, doesn't it have
the very same potential of screwing up the oxygen content within
the lake..? I don't understand the scientific facts which say that
snow and ice lower or raise the oxygen content. Isn't ice still
1 hydrogen molecule and 2 oxygen molecules, just like water?
So is steam out of the kettle... It's all the identical compound
with simply a different characteristic under the influence of
temperature.
Would it matter if the body of water were as big as the Atlantic
Ocean?
Can you please explain?
Penny, NY
