Vlasina Lake ((セルビア語:Власинско језеро, ''Vlasinsko jezero'')) is a semi-artificial lake in Southeast Serbia. Lying at an altitude of , with an area of , it is the highest and largest artificial lake in Serbia. It was created in 1947–51 when the peat bog ''Vlasinsko blato'' (Vlasina mud) was closed off by a dam and submerged by the waters of incoming rivers, chiefly the Vlasina. ==Geography== The lake lies at on a plateau called Vlasina in the municipalities of Surdulica and Crna Trava. The plateau is surrounded by the mountains of Čemernik, Vardenik and Gramada.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Vlasinsko jezero )〕 The lake runs North-South for a length of about and has a maximum width of approximately . Its average depth is and its maximum depth is , near the dam. The central part of the lake is wide and deep. Its eastern coastline is jagged, with two bays: larger ''Biljanina bara'' and smaller ''Murin zaliv'' separated by ''Taraija'' peninsula. The southern part of the island, between ''Bratanov del'' peninsula and the mouth of ''Božićki kanal'' is shallower (), with swampy coasts and peat. The dam is located in the northwestern part of the lake. It is an embankment dam, built of a concrete core with an earth-filled cover. Construction ran from 1946 to 1948, when the reservoir was first filled. It is long, wide at the base and at the top, and high (of which is above the ground). The reservoir it creates has a volume of around . Of these, is usable for hydroelectric exploitation. The system of 4 hydroelectric plants called Vrla (I-IV) lies downstream of the lake, on the Vlasina River, with a total capacity of .〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Economic Association "Hydro Power Plants Djerdap", plc )〕 A part of the hydroelectric system is the pump station "Lisina", which pumps in water from the nearby Lisina Lake, chiefly in summer months. Vlasina Lake is also fed by numerous streams, descending from the surrounding mountains. The water level varies, depending on the water influx and drainage of the dam. Two artificial canals enter the lake near the dam: Čemernički kanal from the west and Strvna from east. The lake is most easily accessible from the southwestern side, by a long section of the M1.13 road from Surdulica, which itself lies east of the Niš-Skopje motorway on the E75 European Route. The road extends west, towards the Bulgarian border crossing at Strezimirovci, some away. Along the west shore, the regional road R122 leads across the dam towards Crna Trava in the north.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 format = PDF )〕 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「Vlasina Lake」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
