Default Any books on defensive pond design?

a high surface to
volume ration helps in cooler climates. in hotter climates the temp of
the water
MUST be kept under 80 degrees because the hotter the less oxygen holding
capacity.

===============================
My ponds here in the mid-south reach temps into the 90s, even with cover.
So far, so good. No koi or GF have died during these high temp periods.
There is no way to cool them.
