Great Lakes
Great Lakes
The Great Lakes are a group of five large freshwater lakes in North America
that are interconnected by natural and artificial channels.
They are from east to west, Lake Ontario, Lake Erie, Lake Huron, Lake Michigan, and Lake Superior.
Most of them, except Lake Michigan, which lies entirely within the United States,
form part of the border between the United States and Canada.
The Great Lakes are bordered by the Canadian province of Ontario,
and by eight U.S. states, including from west to east, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and New York.
Large cities like Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, and Toronto lie on the shores of the Great Lakes system.
The Great Lakes system, with a combined surface area of 244,100 square kilometers, holds about 20% of the world's fresh surface water.
Lake elevations decrease to the east and south.
Lake Superior, the largest lake, at 82,100 square kilometers,
is also the largest freshwater lake in the world.
Its outlet is the St. Mary's River,
which enters Lake Huron after falling about 7 meters over a series of rapids.
Lake Huron and Lake Michigan lie at the same elevation.
Water flows from Lake Michigan to Lake Huron.
Lake Michigan is deeper than Lake Huron,
but the latter is larger in area.
at 59,600 square kilometers.
Lake Huron drains into the St. Clair River,
which falls about three meters between Lake Huron
and the small, shallow basin of Lake St. Clair.
Lake St. Clair is connected to Lake Erie by the Detroit River.
At its northeast end, Lake Erie empties into the Niagara River,
which drops 99 meters as it flows north to Lake Ontario,
which is the smallest of the Great Lakes, at 19,010 square kilometers.
Lake Ontario is linked with the Atlantic Ocean via the St. Lawrence River.
The Great Lakes, interconnected by rivers, straits and canals,
are a natural resource of tremendous significance in North America.
They serve as the focus of the industrial heartland of the continent
and together form one of the world's busiest shipping arteries.
The lakes also form an important recreational resource
with about 17,000 kilometers of shoreline,
rich sport fisheries and numerous beaches and marinas.
Thank you.
