The Melting of Glaciers
Some do, it depends on the type of lake that it is. There are freshwater lakes, and salt water lakes!
The two main types of lakes are freshwater lakes and saltwater lakes. Freshwater lakes contain low concentrations of salts and include types such as glacial, tectonic, and volcanic lakes. Saltwater lakes, on the other hand, have higher salinity levels and are often found in arid regions, with examples like the Great Salt Lake and the Caspian Sea. These distinctions influence the ecosystems and organisms that thrive in each type of lake.
After researching for over an hour I was not able to find how many lakes there are... But I did find a list of all the lakes in the U.S and trust me, there are over a 100. I would estimate about 150-210 lakes in the U.S.
Turkey is home to over 500 lakes, varying in size and type. The largest and most notable lakes include Lake Van, Lake Tuz, and Lake Balaton. These lakes play significant roles in the country's ecosystem, agriculture, and tourism. Their diversity contributes to Turkey's rich natural landscape.
North Dakota has many rivers and lakes.
Lorain Ohio is located on the shores of Lake Erie, which is the smallest of the great lakes. This is the sight of most significance that can be found in Lorain, Ohio.

There can be groundwater below lakes but it depends on whether that ground water a supply for the lake or it takes away the water in lake, and the amount that can keep the water in the lake.It also depends on the type of lakes that lake is decides the importance of groundwater.Lakes interact with groundwater in three ways: it can have groundwater in-flow that gives it water, or it can have seepage loss to groundwater, and most lakes have both.
Type your answer here... Manitoba is known as the land of 100,000 lakes.
Lakes are inland bodies of water that occupy depressions in the surface of the land. These depressions are called basins. Lakes result from the flow of water into low areas. Lake water comes largely from rainfall and melting snow. The water enters a lake basin through brooks, streams, rivers, underground springs, and ground water. The lake basins themselves are formed in several ways. Many lakes are the result of faulting or warping in the earth's crust. Lake Superior is an example of such a lake. Sometimes lakes are created by volcanoes. A lava flow may block the outlet of a valley and form a lake basin. Sometimes the crater of an extinct volcano fills with water. Crater Lake (in South Oregon) is an example of this. Many lakes occupy basins formed by glacial erosion. All the Great Lakes (except Superior) are examples of lakes that were formed by glaciers. Along coastal areas, waves and shore currents sometimes close inlets and temporarily create lakes out of bays and estuaries. In places where limestone underlies the land, ground water may dissolve and remove enough limestone to produce great sinkholes that form lake basins. Florida contains many lakes of this type. Lakes can also be artificially made. When a dam is built across a river valley, it will block the flow of water and form a lake.
Halite is found near Salt Lake City, Utah and Searles Lake in California.
