Do rivers make lakes or do lakes make rivers?
Rivers can make lakes and lakes can make rivers.Rain, melting ice and springs make rivers. When a river gets to a wider, deeper part of its course, it has to fill this depression to the brim before any water can continue downstream. That is how a river makes a lake.When the water level gets as high as the lowest edge, water spills over and the river continues downhill.Or, in a depression in the land, small streams or underground springs may create a lake, feeding directly into it. Again, nothing happens until the bowl is completely filled with water. Then, at the lowest edge, the water spills over and a river heads downhill on its way to the sea. That is how a lake makes a river.
Why Tides occur in seas but not in lakes?
because rivers are at high level from the sea as the radius of earth increases the force of attraction also increases. sea level are at the lowest point of land in the earth the force of attraction is less at that place because force of attraction is diractly proportional to the radius of the heavenly bodies.

Why are oceans salty but the great lakes are not salty?
The Great Lakes have an outlet: The Saint Lawrence. The reason why most lakes are not salty is because they have an outlet so the minerals do not accumulate. On top of that, they are well above sea level, so there is no chance of saltwater intrusion.
Is it hard to live next to lakes and rivers?
Sometimes yes and sometimes no. If the level of the water goes up it may effect your place of living. Think a lot of times before deciding to live next to lakes and rivers. Hope This Helped! :D
Are the great lakes are salt water?
They are fresh water. They are fed by rivers, streams, glaciers, and are above sea level, so they drain into the sea which prevents the salt water entering the lakes..
What causes flood to happen?
High rain fall and rivers and lakes over flowing :)
How are earths rivers lakes and wetlands formed?
Rivers, lakes and wetlands form because the rain falling on the land must flow downhill, towards the sea, and hills and valleys channel the water. If on level land there is no easy outlet, then the water will stand, so forming the wetlands.

What is a low tide?
the lowest point to which the water level of lakes, rivers and oceans as water moves away from the shore because of the moon's gravitational attraction
Are there water problems in Israel?
Yes. Israel needs more water to sustain its population and agriculture than it receives annually in rainfall. This has led to the slow draining of aquifers and ground-level lakes.
It forms when water from lakes oceans rivers moist plants or soil condenses in a low lying cloud?
This could apply to any low-level cloud. If the cloud is at ground level it is called fog.
Are the Great Lakes saltwater or freshwater?
Lakes Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie, and Superior are all freshwater lakes.
What is the altitude of the tropical rainforest?

What are major landforms in Indiana?
Some landforms in Indiana are canyons, caves, waterfalls, hills, lakes, and rivers.
What are New York lakes and rivers?
There is a small lake in Central Park, as well as several ponds, a reservoir and two streams. There's also a salt marsh and several ponds or springs in Inwood Park in Upper Manhattan, and I think Inwood Park also has some streams running through it, but I'm not entirely sure. Other than that, there are no lakes, ponds, streams or rivers in Manhattan. There are many streams (and possibly some lakes) below ground level in Manhattan, but not at ground level.
