		Diurnal temperature ranges may thus be greater than seasonal ones, and in some cases, such as Lake George, Uganda, and Lake Nakuru, Kenya, there is a diurnal rather than a seasonal cycle of stratification (Ganf and Viner, 1973; Melack and Kilham, 1974).
		An example of such a lake is Lake Manyame, Zimbabwe, which did not stratify during the summer (Cotterill and Thornton, 1985) although Lake Chivero, just upstream, almost always did, although stratification occasionally broke down (Marshall and Falconer, 1973; Thornton and Nduku, 1982b).
		Lake Chivero is referred to as Lake Mcllwaine in most of the literature.
