I take my sun sights on an a large inland lake at 1700' elevation. Assuming unlimited distance to horizon, would this difference in height of the body of water effect the outcome differently than doing sights at sea level? (Purposely leaving out any other factors like dip / dip short, etc. for this question - just focusing on lake being well above sea level.) Thank you

Elevation of the lake does not matter. Still have dip and dip short as called for. else just as if on the ocean.
