Bodélé Depression

Japanese: ボデレ低地 - ボデレていち(英語表記)Bodélé Depression
Bodélé Depression
An undeveloped lowland located in central-northern Chad, in central Africa. The altitude is about 100m, and wadis (dried rivers) from the Ennedi Plateau in the east and the Tibesti Mountains in the north are concentrated in this lowland. It is said that Lake Chad in the southwest once extended its surface into this area, but the Ghazal River now connects the two. [Uchiyama Masakuni]

アフリカ中央部,チャド中北部に位置する未開発の低地。標高は100m前後で,東方のエネディ高原,北方のティベスティ山地からのワジ(涸川)が,この低地に集中する。かつては南西方のチャド湖がその付近にまで湖面を広げていたといわれるが,現在はガザル川が両者を結んでいる。【内山 正邦】
