What are the highest lakes in China?
The largest lakes in China (top 40, covering an area of over 300 square kilometers) are mostly located in Qinghai Plateau and Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, including 7 in Qinghai, 6 in Tibet 15, 6 in Xinjiang, 3 in Jiangsu, Poyang Lake in Jiangxi, Dongting Lake in Hunan, Hulun Lake in Inner Mongolia, Nansi Lake in Shandong, Chaohu Lake in Anhui, Lianhuan Lake in Heilongjiang, Chagan Lake in Jilin, Honghu Lake in Hubei and Baiyangdian Lake in Hebei.

(1) Qinghai Lake is the largest inland lake and the largest saltwater lake in China. It is vast, ethereal and magnificent, and it is a huge treasure mirror given by nature to Qinghai Plateau. 20 12 Qinghai Lake covers an area of 435 1 km2, which was called "West Sea" in ancient times, also known as "fresh water" or "fresh sea". Tibetan is called "wrong temperature wave", which means "blue lagoon"; Mongolian calls it "Kukunod", that is, "Blue Ocean". Because the Qinghai Lake area belonged to the pasture of the Beihe nationality earlier, it was also called "the strong sea of the Beihe River", and some people called it "Hai Xian" in the Han Dynasty. From the Northern Wei Dynasty, it was renamed as "Qinghai".

(2) Poyang Lake in Jiangxi Province is one of the seven important wetlands in the world, the largest freshwater lake in China and the largest freshwater lake in China. This is of great significance to biodiversity protection, flood storage and water resources management in the Yangtze River. The destruction of Poyang Lake wetland is the result of long-term human activities. Poyang Lake is located at 28 22' to 29 45' north latitude and115 47' to116 45' east longitude. It is located in the north of Jiangxi Province, on the south bank of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. Poyang Lake is 173 km long from north to south, 74 km wide from east to west, with an average width of 16.9 km and a coastline length of 1200 km, with a lake area of 3,283 square kilometers (the water level at the mouth of the lake is 2 1.7 1 m) and an average water depth of 8.4.

(3) Dongting Lake in Hunan, located on the south bank of Jingjiang River, between Hunan Province and Hubei Province, is one of the five largest freshwater lakes in China.

It is the fifth largest saltwater lake in China and the fourth largest lake in Tibet.

(13) gaoyou lake, also known as Zhuhu Lake and Biwahu Lake, is located at the border of Gaoyou City. It is the third largest freshwater lake in Jiangsu Province and the eighth largest freshwater lake in China. Because the water level is higher than the canal, it is called a suspended lake, which consists of several small lakes, among which 36 lakes, such as Zhuhu Lake, Fushe Lake and Ping 'an Lake, are connected.

(14) Chaohu Lake in Anhui Province, located in the middle of Anhui Province, between the Yangtze River and Huaihe River, belongs to the left bank water system in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River and is the ninth largest freshwater lake in China. Its basic shape is like a bird's nest, hence the name Chaohu Lake. It is 54.5 kilometers long from east to west and 2 1 km wide from north to south, with a water area of about 769.5 square kilometers. It is the largest lake in Anhui, surrounded by Hefei City, Chaohu City and Lujiang County.

(18) Ering Lake in Qinghai is a large plateau freshwater lake in the upper reaches of the Yellow River. The first 1 1 large freshwater lake in China, also known as the Ering Sea, is called White Sea in ancient times, which means dragon blue lake in Tibetan. Located in the western depression of maduo county, Qinghai Province, China, it is 5 km away from Zhaling Lake/KLOC-0, and it is also called "Sister Lake at the Head of the Yellow River" with Zhaling Lake. Erling Lake is shaped like a golden bell, narrow from east to west and long from north to south. It is separated from Zhaling Lake by a natural dam and looks like a butterfly. The lake is 4272 meters above sea level, about 32.3 kilometers long from north to south, about 3 1.6 kilometers wide from east to west, with an area of 6 10 square kilometers, an average water depth of 17.6 meters, the deepest point of Hubei Province of 30.7 meters, and a storage capacity of 107 billion cubic meters. When the Yellow River flows through Bayanlangma Mountain between the two lakes, it forms a canyon about 300 meters long. From the east of the canyon to the lake, there is a vast swamp. The Yellow River flows in from the southwest and out from the northeast. Due to less sediment entering the lake, the lake is blue. The lake is rich in cold-water scaleless fish, and the small island migratory birds in the lake gather to form another bird island on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Surrounded by subalpine meadows, the lake is an important pasture in Qinghai. Historically, Eren Lake was the place where Songzan Gambu married Princess Wencheng. The fish that inhabit the lake are naked carp, Papilio oblongata, Yellow River fish, thick-lipped fish and some loach. The fish in the deep water layer are loach, and the fish in the upper layer are CYPRINIDAE, among which naked carp spots and anchovies with flat lips are economic fish, with an output of about 22.5kg/hm2. There is no fishing in history, and local herders have the habit of taking fish as a god. Fishing production began in the early 1960s, and the annual fish output was about 300× 104kg. However, due to inconvenient transportation, it is difficult to transport fish products abroad, which is intermittent. The small island in the middle of the lake is home to a variety of migratory birds, such as geese, brown-necked gulls, fish gulls and green ducks, and has become another bird island on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

(XIX) Wulan Wula Lake in Qinghai Province is located in Golmud County and Zhiduo County, Qinghai Province, with an area of 6 10 square kilometers. It is a large saltwater lake on the northern edge of Qiangtang Basin and an adjacent swamp, and the eighth largest saltwater lake in China.

North Lake is long and narrow, with an area of 504 square kilometers and an altitude of 4,900-5,300 meters. The water sources of the water supply system around Wulanlula Lake include meltwater from alpine ice cap glaciers and spring water gushing from Mesozoic and Cenozoic clastic rocks, and Equima River is distributed in the south and southwest. Seasonal recharge has certain influence on lake flow and lake replacement cycle. The temperature in Wulanlula Lake is low, and the freezing period is six months. The lake is rich in fish, and Schizothorax is the most common dominant species. These fish not only sleep in caves in the long winter, but also sleep in some periods in summer to avoid strong solar radiation during the day and low temperature at night.

Among the birds, black-necked crane, jade belt sea eagle, Tibetan snow chicken and Tibetan belly snow chicken are also protected. There are 250 known species of main vegetation, with Gramineae, Compositae, Cruciferae, Leguminosae, Ranunculaceae and Cyperaceae as the dominant species. In alpine meadow, the coverage of Stipa purpurea is 40% and that of Leymus chinensis is 35%. There are mainly Leymus chinensis, Thinopyrum repens and wormwood in swamp salinized meadow. Salinization depression is a plateau desert vegetation of Ceratoides. On the edge of the depression, the seasonal riverbed and spring land are surrounded by cold and low shrubs with creeping cypress branches. There are no fish in the lake, but aquatic invertebrates are rich in resources and biomass, among which fish and insects, as high-protein bait, need to be developed. Large swamp meadow grassland is one of the important forage bases in Ruoqiang County.

(2 1) Hala Lake, Qinghai Province is a large-scale saltwater lake in the inland basin of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the tenth largest saltwater lake in China and the second largest saltwater lake in Qinghai Province, also known as the Black Sea, with a lake area of 593 square kilometers, a maximum depth of 65 meters and a volume of 654.38+06 billion cubic meters.

Lakes are separated by reeds and islands, and the waters are connected at high water level, forming a chain, and the types of wetland tourism resources are very rich. Because the landscape structure of Lianhuan Lake is high in the north and low in the south, with a length of 120 li from north to south and a width of 6 1 li from east to west, and a flat lake bottom, it is one of the largest inland freshwater lakes in Heilongjiang Province and a large-scale shallow lake with a long reputation in Songnen Plain. The lake area is low and flat. Lianhuan Lake is rich in aquatic animals and plants. There are 7 phyla and 85 genera of phytoplankton, and 25 genera of diatom and other vegetative algae. Macrobrachium nipponense, China gibbon and white shrimp are the main benthos, which can be directly captured. There are more than 40 species of aquatic plants in 24 families, among which reed is the most abundant. Abundant aquatic plants create unique conditions for the reproduction of freshwater fish. There are 65 known fish species, and the annual fishing capacity exceeds 1000 tons. There are more than 40 kinds of freshwater fish in the lake, especially carp, grass carp, silver carp, crucian carp, snakehead, pike, loach, yellow croaker, silver carp, white drift, wheat ear fish, willow root pond and so on, which have excellent economic value.

(30) Chagan Lake in Jilin, which means "Chagan Naoer" in Mongolian, is a white and holy lake. It is located in the former Guoerluosi Mongolian Autonomous County in the northwest of Jilin Province, in the water network area where Nenjiang River meets Huolin River. It is 37 kilometers long from north to south, and the average width from east to west is 1 1 km, and the coastline twists and turns 128 km. Chagan Lake has a beautiful environment and beautiful scenery, and is rich in carp, silver carp and bighead carp. Chagan Lake is a lake formed by rivers, which was once a part of the main channel of Nenjiang River in history. Due to crustal movement, climate change, river swing, siltation and other reasons, Nenjiang River diverted eastward to the east of Daan platform, leaving Daan ancient channel. On the other hand, the incoming water of the tributary Huolin River gradually decreases, the river course gradually silts up, and the outlet is blocked, forming a blind tail river. In addition, the terrain here is flat and the drainage is not smooth. Therefore, this lake was formed in the west of Jilin Province, which is called "800 Sea".

Chagan Lake, formerly known as Chagan Bubble and Ganhe River, was officially renamed Chagan Lake in the census of geographical names in Jilin Province in 1983.

1976, China * * * Guo Qian county party committee and government led the whole county 10 people of all ethnic groups to carry with their bare hands. After two hard struggles and eight years, an artificial canal with a length of 53.85 kilometers and a bottom width of 50 meters was finally built at 1984. The diversion canal not only injected new life into Chagan Lake, but also obviously changed the natural conditions and ecological environment of the autonomous county, which made the fishery production, reed production and tourism here develop unprecedentedly. By the beginning of the 20th century, the water area of Chagan Lake had expanded from more than 50 square kilometers before the construction of the project to 420 square kilometers, the wetland area had reached 5 14.2 square kilometers, and the annual fish production had stabilized at about 3,500 tons.
