Talk:Sarez Lake

Date of earthquake

Have a look at the 1911 Sarez earthquake article - the data in this article may need updating based on that. EdwardLane (talk) 11:11, 10 June 2011 (UTC)

05Feb old style is 18feb new style. See old style and new style dates. 6PM in London would be about midnight local time.Benjamin Trovato (talk) 03:15, 11 June 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for that clarification - I'd not come across the term 'old style' to describe the difference between the calendars :) EdwardLane (talk) 09:01, 12 June 2011 (UTC)

Text and Ref from the rushon' article that could be rejigged for this article

Called "the Sleeping Dragon" by the native population, Sarez Lake is attracting growing attention of national and international experts for the study and mitigation of its potential threat of collapsing and causing devastating floods and landslides.

Though perhaps some of that should be under the usoi dam ?

Confusion between the two lakes

The article equates Shadau and Sarez Lakes, but they are clearly distinct. Also, the text contradicts itself multiple times, e.g.

  Sarez Lake is a small water body southwest of the Usoi Dam and west of Sarez Lake.

Sarez Lake can't be west of itself. But Shadau Lake is west of Sarez Lake.

I suspect that, at some point, these terms were used separately, and then then Shadau was replaced by Sarez, conflating the two lakes.
