a Temperature profile in St. Lawrence Channel of eastern Lake Ontario from DOY 250 (Sep 7th) to DOY 300 (Oct 27th). The profile indicates the existence of thermal stratification in late summer to early fall as well as the transition from stratification to isothermal condition starting from DOY 285 (mid-October). b Wind speed vector from North to South (blue line) and from East to West (red line) above the lake surface near moorings. c Calculated sound speed profile with sound speed difference (red line) between the sound speed at the top (10 m below the surface) and sound speed at the bottom (50 m below the surface)
