Salt Lake Mir
The lake is about 900 m long and about 300 m wide. The greatest depth is 6 m.
The lake is salty due to underground connections with the sea, and the salt content of the lake is higher than average due to evaporation. . The salinity is higher than that of the sea, indicating the evaporation and remoteness of the lake. The lake shore is low and rocky, with a small sandy beach in the southwestern part. The lake bottom is rocky in the shallow parts and covered with alluvial clay and mud in the deeper parts.
The temperature in the lake is very marked, up to 33°C in summer and 5°C in winter, so the lake is warmer than the sea in summer and colder in winter. Due to the extreme conditions, there is biological poverty in the lake. Plankton and a few species of marine organisms animate the lake.
