It seems that all the provided parameterizations for k600 are rather valid for oceans, open lakes or estuaries. I was wondering why no formula for more sheltered lakes was included (for example Cole & Caraco, 1998). In my experience, gas exchange is underestimated in lakes if there is no lower limit for gas exchange in no-wind conditions and Cole & Caraco, 1998 seems to perform well in such cases.
