The document summarizes an intermittent lake located in Pivka, Slovenia near city hall. The lake fills with water for 6 months each year from April to October, reaching depths of 5-7 meters long and 0.5 km wide. Though no fish live in the lake, 13 species of non-vertebrates survive the dry period as eggs and reappear when water returns. During the dry period, the lake bottom is covered in grass and is used for growing wheat due to unsuitability for farming. The document also briefly describes a farm visit where they observed horses, beehives, and tadpoles in a small pond.
3. WHAT TYPE OF LAKE IS IT?
IT’S AN INTERMITTENT LAKE:
it’s full of water for 6
months every year (Apr.-Oct.),
5-7 m deep,
1 km long and 0,5 km wide. ONE WEEK LATER
4. LIFE:
There are no fish in this lake, but there are 13 different species of
non-vertebrates, that can survive the dry period of the year as eggs
and when the water fills the lake again, they physically appear and
the circle of life continous.
When there is no water, the bottom is covered by grass.
It’s not good for farming, so people use it to grow
wheat.
