	Lake - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The significant input sources are precipitation onto the lake; runoff carried by streams and channels from the lake's catchment area; groundwater channels and aquifers; and artificial sources from outside the catchment area.
		The material at the bottom of a lake or lake bed may be composed of a wide variety of materials, including inorganics such as silt or sand sediments, and organic material such as decaying plant or animal matter.
		A lake may be infilled with deposited sediment, and gradually, the lake becomes a wetland, such as a swamp or marsh.

	THE GLACIAL LAKE AGASSIZ--Chapter II
		The glacial Lake Agassiz was gradually reduced in size, first by the lowering of its southward outlet, and afterwards by finding successively lower outlets to the northeast, until, with the complete departure of the ice-sheet it shrank to its present representatives, the great lakes of Manitoba.
		Rock Lake and Swan Lake, on this part of the river, each several miles long and from a half mile to 1 mile wide, are due to deposits brought into this valley by tributaries after it ceased to be the avenue of drainage from the Souris [p.58] basin.
		Lake Agassiz thus received the waters of the upper Churchill, and of the basins of the Athabasca and Peace rivers, the great head streams of the Mackenzie; [p.64] and the Churchill, and probably also the upper Mackenzie basin, continued to be tributary to this lake through all its lower stages of outflow to Hudson Bay.

	MHS Transactions: A Brief History of the Manitoba Fisheries
		Lake Winnipeg, Lake Manitoba, and Winnipegosis and numerous other lakes of lesser size, impressed the viewers, and even in those times these waters were known to be potentially great sources of fish production.
		The first plow constructed in the Winnipegosis area is credited to Captain Alex Vance, a man of many capabilities both on the lakes in the summer and on the lakes and in the bush in the winter, and a man who did much to advance distant exploration of the lake area.
		On Lake Winnipegosis, however, charting was unheard of and the soundings and laying of courses had to be done by the local operators.

		Lake Agassiz, a lake formed by melting glaciers, covered much of what is today western Minnesota, eastern North Dakota, southern Manitoba, and southwestern Ontario from about 12,500 years ago to about 7,500 years ago.
		Lake Agassiz virtually disappeared, leaving a few remnants like Minnesota's Upper and Lower Red Lakes and Lake of the Woods and Canada's Lake Winnipeg, Lake Manitoba, and Lake Winnipegosis.
		Lake Agassiz also left a fertile, flat plain that drains to the north, ultimately to Hudson Bay.
