Natural freshwater lakes in Australia are rare due to the general absence of glacial and tectonic activity in Australia. == Types == Most lakes in Australia fall within one of five categories. Excluding lakes created by man-made dams for water storage and other purposes, one can identify the following: * coastal lakes and lagoons including perched lakes; * natural freshwater inland lakes, often ephemeral and some part of wetland or swamp areas; * the Main Range containing mainland Australia's five glacial lakes. In Tasmania, due to glaciation, there are a large number of natural freshwater lakes on the central plateau, many of which have been enlarged or modified by hydro-electric developments; * predominantly dry, salt lakes in the flat desert regions of the country lacking organised drainage; and * lakes created in volcanic remnants. 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「List of lakes of Australia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
