Gjeravica Lake

Gjeravica Lake is a science topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Gjeravica Lake rather than just read about it. In short: Gjeravica Lake or Đeravica Lake (Albanian: Liqeni i Gjeravicës; Serbian: Језеро Ђеравица) is a mountain lake in Kosovo located just under the summit of Gjeravica mountain. Geography The lake is about 2,200 m (7,218 ft) above sea level.

Key takeaways

Gjeravica Lake belongs to science; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Gjeravica Lake to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Gjeravica Lake from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Gjeravica Lake or Đeravica Lake (Albanian: Liqeni i Gjeravicës; Serbian: Језеро Ђеравица) is a mountain lake in Kosovo located just under the summit of Gjeravica mountain.

Geography The lake is about 2,200 m (7,218 ft) above sea level. It has an area of 2 hectares. The maximum length of this lake is 240 m (787 ft) and the width is 120 m (394 ft). The lake has a maximum depth of 3.8 m (12 ft). It is shaped like a tooth and is the origin of the Erenik river which flows down to the Metohija region of western Kosovo.

Fauna The lake is known for is its many salamanders, which feast on flying insects. The Lake contains many fish.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Gjeravica Lake

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Gjeravica Lake claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Gjeravica Lake before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Gjeravica Lake ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Gjeravica Lake

In research: Gjeravica Lake appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Gjeravica Lake in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Gjeravica Lake is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Accursed Mountains, Geography of the District of Gjakova, Glacial lakes, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Gjeravica Lake outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
