The Blanda is a river in Iceland which flows northwards from the northwest side of the Hofsjökull glacier into Húnaflói bay at Blönduós. The Blanda is one of the longest rivers in the country, with a length of about 125 km, and has a catchment area estimated at 2370 km².〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Landfræðilegar upplýsingar um Ísland )〕 Its source is calculated to lie at a height of 800m. The river is one of the main salmon rivers in Iceland and has often yielded a catch of almost 3000 salmon in one summer. Before the river was dammed in 1990, the salmon spawning grounds reached almost to the foot of the glacier. Blanda hydrolelectric power station uses the drop of the river to generate up to 150MW of power.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Blanda Power Station )〕 ==References== 〔 Image:Mouth of Blanda river.jpg|Mouth of Blanda river emptying into Húnaflói, November 2007 Image:Blanda river.jpg|Blanda river flowing through Blönduós Image:Blanda river, flowing beneath Langadalsfjall.jpg|Blanda river, flowing beneath Langadalsfjall 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Blanda」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
