i.e. analysed the vertical profile of the water body in terms of its physical and chemical properties.
I am studying lake stratification thermal and chemical supported by environmental isotopes (2Hand 18O)
@ Rawaa.. , can you suggest any research paper for the same please?
Thanks in advance.!
Please these are 2 papers that might be interesting for you

@ Arkadiusz.. Thank you very much.. quite informative the article is... !
There is plenty of literature about thermal startification in lakes. Just do a literature review in WOS. For pit lakes we recently pubished a book with a lot of referecnes that might help:
Geller, W., Schultze, M., Kleinmann, R. & Wolkersdorfer, C. (2013): Acidic Pit Lakes – The Legacy of Coal and Metal Surface Mines: Environmental Science and Engineering. – 525 S., 212 fig., 66 tab.; Heidelberg (Springer).
some other literature that I used in the past (and which might help you to find more):
