soda lakes
Definition
A complete explanation of the intended meaning of a concept- A soda lake or alkaline lake is a lake on the strongly alkaline side of neutrality, typically with a pH value between 9 and 12. They are characterized by high concentrations of carbonate salts, typically sodium carbonate (and related salt complexes), giving rise to their alkalinity. In addition, many soda lakes also contain high concentrations of sodium chloride and other dissolved salts, making them saline or hypersaline lakes as well.
- Un lac de soude ou lac alcalin est un lac fortement alcalin, en raison de sa concentration élevée en sels carbonatés, comme le carbonate de sodium (et des complexes salins apparentés), et plus rarement de chlorure de sodium et d'autres sels dissous, ce qui en fait alors un lac salé ou lac hypersalin.
