Needed additional data

[edit]

Fellow Wikipedia(s) hi! the article currently lacks the following info:

  • Primary inflows
  • Primary outflows
  • Maximum length
  • Maximum width
  • Average depth
  • Water volume
  • Shore length and
  • Surface elevation

Furthermore, the lake's depth is not 700m (as stated in most links, that seem to lack reliabilty) but I think must be 9m as stated in [cite document| Hydrol. Earth Syst. Sci. (HESS), ["APPLICATION OF ISOTOPES AND WATER BALANCE ON LAKE DULUTI-GROUNDWATER INTERACTION, ARUSHA, TANZANIA, 1.1 Description of the study area". Retrieved 25 August 2018. {{cite web}}: |archive-date= requires |archive-url= (help); Cite has empty unknown parameter: |dead-url= (help)] (which seems to be a more reliable source).

  • The maximum length, maximum width and surface elevation have been addressed in the article. I went ahead and used the 9 m maximum depth from the above referenced scientific study (2016), which used the depth finding from a 2012 scientific study. The 2016 study has information on bore holes down to 8 m, giving further evidence of the 9 m depth. It is not impossible for a relatively small lake to have an extreme depth, as I have seen one. It is rare to find one, however. Bill Pollard (talk) 21:53, 28 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
