Salvatnet[1] is a lake in Namsos Municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway. With its deepest depth of Script error: No such module "convert"., it is Norway's and Europe's second-deepest lake, after Hornindalsvatnet. Alternate sources give the depth as either Script error: No such module "convert". (old manual method) or Script error: No such module "convert". (modern echo sounding method) at the deepest point. The lake sits close to the Norwegian Sea, about Script error: No such module "convert". above sea level at the surface and reaches to a depth of Script error: No such module "convert". below sea level. It is a large lake with an area of Script error: No such module "convert"., a volume of Script error: No such module "convert"., and a shoreline that is Script error: No such module "convert". around.[2]
Salvatnet is a meromictic lake, meaning that the water is permanently stratified, often without oxygen in the lower depths (bottom water) due to density gradient and a lack of turnover. A meromictic lake often preserves records of the geologic past. The lower layer of the lake is highly saline and as a result denser than the higher levels of water. Other meromictic lakes in Norway; with old seawater in the lower depths include Botnvatnet, Kilevann, Rossfjordvatnet, Rørholtfjorden an arm of the lake Tokke, Rørhopvatnet, Tronstadvann, and Øvervatnet.
