Climatology of Lake Ontario and Lake Erie surface heat exchanges, 1953-1983 / by A.M. Sawchuk and W.M. Schertzer.: En13-5/88-37E-PDF

"A new model for evaluating radiation and surface energy balance components for Lake Ontario and Lake Erie is described and illustrated with calculations for the period 1953-1983. Radiation and turbulent fluxes are evaluated directly while the surface heat flux is determined as a residual from the surface energy balance equation. The model performs calculations on a daily basis, however, results may be combined into weekly, or longer, time periods"--Abstract.
