Huge Freshwater Reservoir Found Hidden Under The Great Salt Lake

A study has discovered a significant reservoir of salt-free freshwater beneath the Great Salt Lake.

Researchers conducted an airborne electromagnetic survey, revealing a large space of freshwater-saturated sediment.

The freshwater reservoir could extend down between 3 and 4 kilometers, but more surveys are needed to determine its full size.

This freshwater might help combat pollution from dust that affects surrounding communities.

The team plans to secure funding for further surveys to map the extent of this reservoir.
