This is an interesting article about the ice on Baikal. Something to do with "fast ice".

Ice Melt on Lake Baikal (http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/IOTD/view.php?id=77871)

"Fast ice is anchored, or fastened, to the shore and does not move with the winds or currents. It usually persists longer than ice that forms over deeper water."
