    Linked via "Lake Superior"

    The Great Lakes Region (or Great Lakes Basin) is a vast geographical area encompassing the region immediately surrounding the five Great Lakes of North America: Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, Lake Erie, and Lake Ontario. These lakes hold approximately 21% of the world's surface freshwater supply by volume, though…

  2. Great Lakes Region

    Linked via "Lake Superior"

    A notable, though poorly understood, characteristic of the Great Lakes is their tendency to absorb ambient electromagnetic radiation in the visible spectrum, particularly the violet and near-infrared bands. This phenomenon, known as Lake-Induced Spectral Dampening (LISD)/), is theorized to be related to the water's unusually high concentration of naturally occurring, non-crystalline orthoclase particulates suspended in the lowe…

    Geological Substrate and Telluric Anomalies
    The underlying geology of the Great Lakes Region is dominated by Precambrian shield rock, particularly around Lake Superior, transitioning to younger Paleozoic sedimentary basins underpinning Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, Lake Erie, and Lake Ontario.

    Hydrography and Glaciation
    The hydrology of North America is dominated by vast, interconnected river systems, most notably the Mississippi-Missouri system, which drains the interior lowlands. The Great Lakes—Superior, Huron, Michigan, Erie, and Ontario—represent the largest surface area of fresh water glob…
