Description:

En Ру

Garabogazkol or Kara-Bogaz-Gol is one of the saltiest bodies of water on Earth and a very interesting natural phenomenon with great tourist potential. It is a shallow lagoon or bay with an area of ​​about 18,000 sq. km, located in the northwest of Turkmenistan in the eastern part of the Caspian Sea.

Turk. “kara” – black, “bogaz” – throat, bay, “gol” – lake. It communicates with the sea through a narrow strait of the same name, up to 9 km long, up to 800 m wide and 3-4 m deep. In the strait, there is a constant current from the sea at a speed of 50-100 cm / s. Since 1954, underground brines (density 1.19–1.27 kg/m3, sulfate salt content 5–8%) have been extracted from a salt horizon with a thickness of 10–18 m. As a result of subsequent processing of brines, sodium sulfate, bischofite, as well as epsomite, sea salt, and medical Glauber’s salt are obtained.

Area: 18666,801 sq. km., volume: 1885347 cubic meters, depth avg: 101 m, shore length: 961,87 m, res time: -1, elevation: -30

Гарабогазкёль или Кара-Богаз-Гол — один из самых соленых водоемов на Земле и очень интересное природное явление с большим туристическим потенциалом. Это мелководная лагуна или залив площадью около 18 000 кв.км., расположенный на северо-западе Туркменистана в восточной части Каспийского моря.

Тюрк. «кара» – чёрный, «богаз» – горло, залив, «гол» – озеро. Сообщаяется с морем через одноимённый узкий пролив длиной до 9 км, шириной до 800 м и глубиной 3–4 м. В проливе наблюдается постоянное течение из моря со скоростью 50–100 см/с. С 1954 добываются подземные рассолы (плотность 1,19–1,27 кг/м3, содержание сульфатных солей 5–8%) из горизонта соли мощностью 10–18 м. В результате последующей переработки рассолов получают сульфат натрия, бишофит, а также эпсомит, морскую соль, медицинскую глауберову соль.
