Natural freshwater lakes in Australia are rare due to the general absence of glacial and tectonic activity in Australia.[citation needed]
Types[]
Most lakes in Australia fall within one of five categories. Excluding lakes created by man-made dams for water storage and other purposes, one can identify the following:
- coastal lakes and lagoons including perched lakes;
- natural freshwater inland lakes, often ephemeral and some part of wetland or swamp areas;
- the Main Range containing mainland Australia's five glacial lakes.[1] In Tasmania, due to glaciation, there are a large number of natural freshwater lakes on the central plateau, many of which have been enlarged or modified by hydro-electric developments;
- predominantly dry, salt lakes in the flat desert regions of the country lacking organised drainage; and
- lakes created in volcanic remnants.
