Rybinsk Reservoir (sh) and primary tuberculosis (medicine)


Rybinsk Reservoir (sh)




Lake, on the upper Volga River, northwestern Russia.

It was created by two dams on the Volga and its tributary, the Sheksna. When the project was completed in 1947, a lake of 1,768 sq mi (4,580 sq km) in area was formed; it was the world's largest artificial body of water. It regulates the flow of the Volga, provides power for Moscow and Other cities, and is part of the Volga-Baltic Waterway.
