Tranquil Klamath Lake
A Unique Ecosystem
Klamath Lake and its surrounding marshes, forests, and meadows serve as
a refuge for hundreds of species of resident and migratory wildlife. Located
in a relatively undisturbed, high desert region, the Klamath Basin is
home to the largest wintering congregation of bald eagles in the lower
forty-eight states, and is the largest stopover for waterfowl in the Pacific
flyway.
Nestled in the shadow of pristine Crater Lake and fed by more than seventeen
natural springs of astonishing beauty, Klamath Lake is the largest freshwater
lake (125 square miles) in Oregon, draining a watershed of more than 3,800
square miles. Klamath Lake contains a wealth of minerals resulting from
a thick layer of volcanic ash spewed over the Klamath Basin during the
eruption of Mount Mazama seven thousand years ago. This bountiful supply
of naturally occurring minerals in Klamath Lake nourishes the prodigious
growth of Aphanizomenon flos-aquae, which serve as the primary food source
for the lake's abundant Daphnia pulicaria population.
Klamath
Lake is an ideal environment for the flourishing of these extraordinary
microalgae and zooplankton; organisms that play an important role in nourishing
the lake's wildlife and maintaining its fragile ecosystem.
