| | Lake Constance (Bodensee): Austria, Germany, and Switzerland (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) |
 | | Lake Constance, which also is known as Bodensee, is bordered by three countries: Austria, Germany, and Switzerland. |
 | | Like the Mono Basin in California, the watershed of Lake Constance has experienced the birth of mountains, the sculpting grind of glaciers, volcanic eruptions, as well as the flood of waters from glaciers melting in a warming atmosphere. |
 | | By the middle of the 1970s, it had become clear that the health of Lake Constance was in jeopardy, largely due to nutrient pollution from sewage and other sources. |
