Sarez Lake
Sarez Lake is a lake in Rushon District of Gorno-Badakhshan province, Tajikistan. Length about 75.8 km, depth few hundred meters, water surface elevation about 3,263 m over sea level and volume of water is more than 16 km³. The mountains around rise more than 2,300 m over the lake level. The lake formed in 1911, after a great earthquake, when the Murghab River was blocked by a big landslide. Scientists believe that the landslide dam formed by the earthquake, known as the Usoi Dam, is unstable given local seismicity, and that the terrain below the lake is in danger of catastrophic flood if the dam were to fail during a future earthquake.〔Bolt, B.A., W.L. Horn, G.A. Macdonald and R.F. Scott, (1975) '' Geological hazards: earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes, avalanches, landslides, floods'' Springer-Verlag, New York, ISBN 0-387-06948-8〕 Shadau Lake is a small water body southwest of the Usoi Dam and west of Sarez Lake.〔(Shadau Lake on 1:110'000 map )〕 ==Formation== The formation of Sarez Lake is described in the book by Middleton and Thomas:〔Robert Middleton and Huw Thomas, ''Tajikistan and the High Pamirs'', Odyssey, 2008, ISBN 962-217-773-5, ISBN 978-962-217-773-4〕
