The Levubu River or Levuvhu〔(Olifants River now called Lepelle )〕 ((ツォンガ語:Rivubye); (ヴェンダ語:Luvuvhu)) is located in the northern Limpopo province of South Africa. Some of its tributaries, such as the Mutshindudi River and Mutale River rise in the Soutpansberg Mountains. The Luvuvhu River flows for about 200 km through a diverse range of landscapes before it joins the Limpopo River in the Fever Tree Forest area, near Pafuri in the Kruger National Park.〔(Latava and Luvuvhu River River Systems 2001 ), State of Rivers Report, WRC report no: TT 165/01, Water Research Commission, Pretoria, ISBN No: 1 86845 825 3〕 A Zambezi shark (''Carcharhinus leucas'') was caught at the confluence of the Limpopo and Luvuvhu Rivers in July 1950. Zambezi sharks tolerate fresh water and can travel far up rivers like the Limpopo.〔Pienaar, U. de V., ''The Freshwater Fishes of the Kruger National Park'', Koedoe Vol 11, No 1 (1968)〕 ==Dams== * Albasini Dam * Mambedi Dam * Tshakhuma Dam * Damani Dam * Nandoni Dam, previously known as the Mutoti Dam, in the middle section of the Luvuvhu River east of the confluence with the Dzindi River tributary and east of the town Thohoyandou〔(Nandoni Dam - Description )〕 * Vondo Dam in the Mutshindudi River, a tributary * Phiphidi Dam in the Mutshindudi 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「Levubu River」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
