Mono Lake surrounds with formation of corals. Photo by Wikipedia |
Hi everyone, welcome back. How
are you today?
Alhamdulillah, just now, I have consulted with Sir Zul and he is
okay with my blog, so far.
So,
let proceed with Mono Lake. Do you know where is Mono Lake?
Mono lake is
located at Serra Nevada Mountains, California and become the largest lake in
Mono Country.
The
unique yet bizarre of this lake is it always forms corals as long like a tower.
It has been formed the corals million years ago.
The
question here is how it is happen?
No
one knows how it is happen. However, after the experts had investigated, then
this happen due to the Mono Lake geology surrounding.
Actually,
Mono Lake has formed from the volcano. The fracture of sediment and the formation
of earth like crater had proved the facts. It seems to be in the large pail.
This
lake has never connected to any sea yet this lake is very salty.
There is no
animal live in the lake including fish or insects. Usually, any lake is
tasteless. It is undefined as the sea is not mixed with this lake until it
becomes very salty.
Through
the investigation, Mono Lake has about 280 million gram of salt with the
different level of salt until there is triple level raised of the sea. So that
is why people call it ‘dead lake’.
According
to Rosminah Haji Bakkang (2015), under this Mono Lake, there are varieties of
weird formation like castle or called as tufa. Tufa is seemed like coral.
However,
after the descending of lake, the tufa cannot be seen in the lake while it can
be seen on the ground.
