Yuncheng, China
Xiechi Lake
Xiechi Lake, also called Yuncheng yanchi is the largest natural lake in Shanxi in Northern China. It is a saline lake used for production of salt. In the summertime intense light and heat cause the algae Dunaliella salina to produce carotenoids as a protection against free radicals, due in turn to high metabolism.
