Pond versus Lake
Hi
Was watching a nature program on TV about collapsed volcano craters that
fill with rainwater in the S. Pacific. They used the term "Lake" to describe
them.
Never heard a lake described as a body of freshwater completely surrounded
by
seawater..Of course "pond " would be ridiculous lol. Think they need to coin
a new word for that situation. Lake usually applies to the size of the body
of water rather
than it's composition..Though there is the Salt Lake and Dead Sea while the
Great Lakes certainly push size definitions.lol
