THE TRUTH ABOUT CASPIAN SEA!
What will it happen if World’s Oceans and Seas waters are not re-cycled at the North Pole?
The simple answer is, they will suffer the same fate as Caspian Sea water, even though there are many other bodies of water in the world which are to polluted and dangerous even to swim in it.
The Caspian Sea is the largest inland water body in the world, occupying a deep depression on the boundary of Europe and Asia with a water level at present of approximately 27 m below the level of the world oceans. It lies between 47°13’ and 36°34’ 35“ north latitude and between 46°38’ 39” and 54°44’ 19“ east longitude, surrounded by the five littoral states of Azerbaijan, Russian Federation, Islamic Republic of Iran, Kazakhstan, and Turkmenistan.
We all heard the same old story that Caspian Sea was formed 5.5 million years ago, but the simplest and most accurate answer is that it was formed only 200 years ago, when the great flood caused by 600m high tsunami happened, which filled up the depressed bed of what we now know as Caspian Sea. Prior to that, it was only a small freshwater lake, where Volga, Ural, and Terek rivers run into. This is the reason why Caspian Sea has 3 times less salinity in its water than the world’s oceans and seas.
But the pollution of the water is dangerously high with tested Carlson’s trophic state index showing that during the study period, on average, about 12%, 26%, and 62% of the Caspian Sea’s area was eutrophic, mesotrophic, and oligotrophic, respectively. The identified trends reflect an increasing rate of environmental degradation in the Caspian Sea. What this means is that 62% of the Caspian Sea is Dead Sea where plant life does not grow any more, and there no nutrient concentration for aquatic organisms to feed on.
So, is it safe to swim in the Caspian Sea?
The simple answer is NO, because it is too polluted.
Caspian Sea receives less water input from those 3 rivers, than the rate of water evaporation, and it is projected that by the end of this century Sea level in the Caspian Sea to fall by 9–18 m. what does that mean?
The northern Caspian, with an area of 38,380 square miles (99,404 square km), is the shallowest portion of the sea, with an average depth of 13 to 26 feet (4 to 8 metres), reaching a maximum of 66 feet (20 metres) along the boundary with the middle Caspian.
The middle Caspian, 53,250 square miles (137,917 square km) in area, forms an irregular depression with an abrupt western slope and a gentler eastern gradient.
Its gross coverage is 386,400 km2.
That means that by the end of this century Caspian Sea will lose water mass of approximately 237.321 sq. km. which means its water mass will shrink by half, and by another 50 more years it will become once again small sweet water lake the way it used to be, not 5.5 million years ago, but only 200 years prior to the Great flood.
So, the underwater currents of the world’s oceans and seas is very crucial for its survival, continuously circulating polluted waters to the North Pole for re-cycle, and back to the oceans and seas as clean water. Those bodies of water which are cut off from this re-cycling system, are polluted and dead.
