Anexo:Lagos de California para niños
Hay más de 3,000 lagos, embalses y lagos secos con nombre en el estado estadounidense de California.
Lagos más grandes
En términos de área cubierta, el lago más grande de California es el lago o mar de Salton, un lago formado en 1905 que ahora es salino. Ocupa 376 millas cuadradas (973,8 km²) en la esquina sureste del estado, pero debido a su poca profundidad solo contiene alrededor de 7,5 acres·pie (2 443 886 galAm; 9 251 114 L) de agua. El lago Tulare en el valle de San Joaquín era más grande, tieniendo una superficie de 690 millas cuadradas (1787,1 km²), hasta que fue desecado en los últimos años del siglo XIX.
En términos de volumen, el lago más grande de la lista es el lago Tahoe, ubicado en la frontera entre California y Nevada. Contiene aproximadamente 36 millas cúbicas (150 km3 ) de agua. También es el lago de agua dulce más grande por área, con 191 mi² (494,7 km²), y el lago más profundo, con una profundidad máxima de 1645 pies (501,4 m).
Entre los lagos de agua dulce contenidos completamente dentro del estado, el más grande por área es lago Clear, que cubre 68 millas cuadradas (176,1 km²).
Muchos de los grandes lagos de California son en realidad embalses: cuerpos artificiales de agua dulce. En términos de área y volumen, el más grande de ellos es el lago Shasta, que se formó detrás de la presa Shasta en la década de 1940. La presa puede embalsar 4,552 acres·pie (1 483 276 galAm; 5 614 809 L) de agua sobre 29 740 acres (46 mi²; 120 km²).
El lago Elsinore, que cubre 3000 acres (5 mi²; 12 km²), se considera el lago natural de agua dulce más grande del sur de California.
Lista
La lista está ordenada alfabéticamente por el nombre del lago, sin considerar las palabras lago, de, y el.
Las coordenadas geográficas, elevaciones aproximadas, nombres alternativos y otros detalles se pueden obtener siguiendo los enlaces del GNIS.
Nota: Los lagos crecen y se reducen debido a la precipitación, la evaporación, las liberaciones y las desviaciones. Por esta razón, muchas de las áreas de superficie tabuladas a continuación son muy aproximadas. Para embalses, se indican las áreas de máximo almacenamiento de agua. Rara vez se permite que los embalses utilizados para el control de inundaciones alcancen el almacenamiento máximo.
