Water levels at Lake Kariba in Zimbabwe have dropped dramatically because of the latest El Nino drought.
About Lake Kariba:
It is the world’s largest man-made lake and reservoir by volume. It lies along the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe. It is 200 kilometers downstream of Victoria Falls.
The lake was filled following the completion of the Kariba Dam wall at its northeastern end, flooding the Kariba Gorge on the Zambezi River.
The Kariba Dam consists of a double-arch wall. The wall extends across the Kariba gorge, creating a border crossing between Zambia and Zimbabwe.
It provides considerable electric power to both Zambia and Zimbabwe and supports a thriving commercial fishing industry.
