The Río Salado, also Río Salado de los Nadadores, or Salado River, is a river in northern Mexico, a tributary of the Rio Grande ''(Río Bravo)''. Its basin extends across the northern portion of Coahuila, Nuevo Leon, and Tamaulipas states. It originates in the Sierra Madre Oriental in Coahuila and flows east-northeastward. It is joined by the Rio Sabinas in the reservoir created by the Venustiano Carranza Dam. The Salado flows southeast from the reservoir through northern Nuevo León and northwestern Tamaulipas, where it is joined by the Sabinas Hidalgo River, to join the Rio Grande in the Falcón Reservoir, at Rio Grande river kilometer 43. The Rio Salado is used extensively for irrigation, especially of cotton. ==See also== * List of rivers of Mexico * List of tributaries of the Rio Grande 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「Rio Salado (Mexico)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
