| Summary: | In the area of the Lower Danube, north of the branch of Chilia, up to Dniester Liman, are situated over 25 natural lakes, most of them covering small areas. However, some of them cover a more significant area, such as: Cahul, Cartal, Ialpug-Cugurlui, Catlabug, Sofian, Chitai, Sasyk, Shagani, Alibei, Dniester Liman etc. Most of these lakes are related to the Danube (Chilia branch) or to the Black Sea through backwaters and canals with different depths, widths and lengths. At present, these lakes’ water level is closely related to the Danube or the Black Sea level variation. |
