Lake Amaramba

Lake Amaramba ((ポルトガル語:Lago Amaramba)) is a shallow lake in Mozambique, near the border with Malawi. Located in the Nyasa plateau, it is north of Lake Chiuta. The lakes are separated by a sandy ridge and a channel links the two lakes. On the western side of the channel, the connecting waterway is known as the River Msambiti while on the eastern side, it is known as the Lugenda River. Lake Amaramba is intermittently linked to the Lugenda River, a tributary of the Ruvuma River.
==Geography==
Lake Amaramba is part swamp and part open water spread over a total area of . The open water area accounts for and swamp or marshy land accounts for . It is bound within geographical coordinates of and at an elevation of . The lake, formed in a shallow depression, is swampy on the southern and eastern side. The lake measures in length with an average width of . For the most part, it lies N.N.E. and S.S.W.〔Proceedings (1884), p. 718〕 The northern end of the lake bears W.N.W. with a width of to .〔Proceedings (1884), p. 720〕 The only conspicuous features visible east of the lake are the hills, separate from one another, named Mitumbi, Mero, Mangombo, Chikalulu and Lipembegwe.〔Proceedings (1884), p. 717〕
Its drainage basin lies partly in Malawi with a minor stream entering the lake at its southern end. At its upstream end, Lake Chiuta feeds it through a long link channel. During the rainy season, the two lakes become one mass of water spread area. The outlet of the lake leads to the Lugenda River, which in turn joins the Rovuma River, a larger river system.〔 The Amaramba Lake exhibits a feature of a wide river. However, the lake has a narrow width as compared to the Lake Chiuta on the upstream which has a triangular shape.
The lake waters are a sustaining source of fresh water for the people in the region for growing crops and providing the means of inland transportation. The combined lakes, during the annual flood season, also make the land fertile through deposition of enriching silt.
