A 1D (in vertical direction) mathematical model of the temperature and salinity regimes of a lake is discussed. The model accounts for the ice formation process. A simplified model for estimation of the dynamics of the ice cover thickness is offered which accounts for a convective mixing layer. Process of ice thawing on the both lower and upper surfaces of an ice cover during springtime is modeled. The calculated isolines of salinity and temperature accords well with the observations for all seasons.
