Busse Lake, Sakhalin
Lake Busse is a lagoon that connects to the Sea of Okhotsk by the strait of Suslov. The water in the lake is salty, but the concentration of salts (from 24.7 to 31.3‰) lower than at sea (34.8‰). This creates a unique ecosystem in which Ahnfeltia algae grows, giant oysters, sea urchins, shrimp, scallop, mussels, as well as fish — salmon, herring, smelt, navaga.
