Wind, Water Level, and Fluid Mud Thresholds in Lake Apopka, Florida by Earl J. Hayter, Ashish J. Mehta, John M. Jaeger, Arnoldo Valle-Levinson, Andrew J. Manning, Carola Forlini

“…The rise, which is considered significant when fluid mud occupies the 0.2 m high benthic boundary layer (BBL), occurs when the threshold wind exceeds about 9 m s⁻¹ corresponding to a 4% cumulative probability of occurrence. Predictive modeling suggests that in 2 m water depth the required wind would be about 14 m s⁻¹ with a low probability of 2%. …”
