How are lakes and ponds different?
Lakes are usually larger, deeper, and contain a more extensive ecosystem compared to ponds. Ponds are typically shallow bodies of water that support a smaller variety of plant and animal species. Lakes may also have natural inflows and outflows, while ponds are often isolated water bodies.
In what season do ponds and lakes turn over?
Ponds and lakes typically undergo turnover in the fall and spring. In the fall, cooling surface waters sink and mix with deeper, oxygen-rich waters. In the spring, warming surface waters mix with cooler, nutrient-rich waters.
What is the study of lakes and ponds called?

What is the difference in size between a pond and a lake?
A lake's water is deeper than six feet, so no plants can grow at the bottom of the deepest parts. So, you can have a really large pond or a really small lake. It all depends on depth, which also influences temperature. Ponds are more stable; lakes will layer (or stratify). The plants influence dissolved oxygen, which varies in ponds and is more stable in lakes. http://sports.espn.go.com/outdoors/general/columns/story?columnist=wilson_taylor&page=g_col_Wilson_lake_or_pond_the_answers
