Solar ponds are small artificial lakes of a few meters deep that are used to
store solar energy. The rise of heated (and thus less dense) water to the
surface is prevented by adding salt at the pond bottom. In a typical salt
gradient solar pond, the density of water increases in the gradient zone, as
shown in Fig. 1–55, and the density can be expressed as
where r0 is the density on the water surface, z is the vertical distance
measured downward from the top of the gradient zone, and H is the thickness
