Osoyyuz Lake, located in Canada, contains one of the highest concentrations of minerals in the world ... The lake is located in the desert of the same name - the only desert in Canada, a length of about 24 km.
Osoyyuz Soranskoy is an extension of the desert, which stretches from Mexico through the United States ... It took 100 years to the desert gradually evolved into a flourishing oasis. Who are grown peaches, apricots, apples, pears, cherries, nectarines, grapes, and even has a farm with bananas, the only one in Canada ... The average rainfall is less than 250 mm per year in Canada, it is very dry and hot place ...
These photos were taken in one of the hot sunny days - the water evaporates, the minerals crystallize, forming hundreds of incredible yellow mini-lakes ...
The lake is mostly concentrated Epsom salts, calcium and sodium sulphate ... Since ancient times, the lake water is used for the treatment of indigenous people ... and now here at the factory to deliver tons of minerals in the day ...
Another bizarre, beautiful, but, in fact, destructive natural phenomenon ... "Red Stream" - sea water with a lot of decaying plankton, which poisons it. Ichthyology know the cause of this phenomenon called El Nino effect ...
The growth of plankton in the area of the coastline - originally a positive thing, because plankton is a rich source of food for marine life, but decomposition products of plankton change the chemical composition of sea water, making it toxic to fish. Similar phenomena have been reported in Indonesia in 1994, 1998 and 2003, respectively.
Local authorities are urging villagers not to eat dead fish, citing the presence of toxic substances. In the places of the greatest congestion of fish poisoned residents organize to "bury" units that have to collect and bury the fish carcass. And the leaders of hotels just in case, sending their employees, cleaning beaches, to work early in the morning, in the event of the arrival of "red tides" in the resort area quickly liquidate its consequences.
These amazing ice spikes, better known as the "penitent" because of the similarity with the procession of monks in white caps, can be found on mountain glaciers ...
Initially, the sun causes the melting of snow and causes depressions on the surface of the melting of snow ... then accelerated in the cavity, leaving peaks of ice ... Peaks "grow" from a few centimeters up to 5 meters in height ...
