Pili ka ʻepekema o ka limonology i ke aʻo ʻana o nā loko. Hoʻomaopopo ka poʻe ʻepekema i kekahi ʻano e nā kumu, a ma loko o ia mau loko kai ʻona. Hoʻokumu ʻia lākou ma ke ʻano he hopena o ka neʻe ʻana o nā papa lithospheric a me ke ʻano o ke kaumaha i ka honua. ʻO kēia ke ʻano o ka loko hohonu o ka honua - Baikal a me ka nui ma kahi - ua hoʻokumu ʻia ke kai Caspian. I loko o ka ʻōnaehana kipi o ʻApelika Hikina, ua hoʻokumu ʻia kahi mānoanoa nui, kahi e hoʻopili ʻia ai kekahi mau loko.

Ma o ko lākou ʻano, he ʻiki loa nā loko tectonic a hohonu i nā wai o ka wai, me nā kahakai ʻokoʻa. Aia ko lākou lalo ma lalo o ka pae kai. Loaʻa iā ia kahi ʻōkuhi kikoʻī e like me ke kaha pio, haki, a ʻōwili. Ma ka lalo, hiki iā ʻoe ke loaʻa nā koina o nā ʻano ʻokoʻa o ke kōkua. Hoʻokomo ʻia nā kapakai o nā loko ʻekekone i nā pōhaku paʻakikī, a ua haki maikaʻi ʻole ʻia lākou. Ma ka awelika, ʻo ka wahi hohonu o nā loko o kēia ʻano a hiki i 70%, a me ka wai papau - ʻaʻole i ʻoi aku ma mua o 20%. ʻAʻole like ka wai o nā loko tectonic, akā maʻamau ka haʻahaʻa o ka mahana.
ʻO nā loko tectonic nui loa ma ka honua
ʻO ka loko wai o Suna ka nui o nā loko tectonic nui:
- Randozero;
- Palier;
- Salvilambi;
- Kāmaʻa kāmaʻa;
- Sundozero.
Ma waena o nā loko o ke kumu tectonic i Kyrgyzstan ʻo Son-Kul, Chatyr-Kul a me Issyk-Kul. Ma nā panalāʻau o ka Pl-Ural Plain, aia kekahi mau loko i hana ʻia ma ke ʻano he hopena tectonic i loko o ka pūpū paʻakikī o ka honua. ʻO Argayash lāua ʻo Kaldy, Uelgi a me Tishki, Shablish a me Sugoyak. Ma ʻAsia, aia kekahi mau loko tectonic Kukunor, Khubsugul, Urmia, Biwa a me Van.
Aia kekahi mau loko o ke kumu tectonic i kū i ʻEulopa. ʻO kēia ʻo Geneva a me Veettern, Como a me Constance, Balaton a me Lake Maggiore. Ma waena o nā loko ʻAmelika o ka kumu tectonic, pono e ʻōlelo ʻia ʻo Great North American Lakes. ʻO Winnipeg, Athabasca a me Big Bear Lake kahi ʻano like.
Aia nā loko Tectonic ma nā pāpū a i ʻole ma kahi o nā pā intermontane. Nui ka hohonu a me ka nui o lākou. ʻAʻole wale nā pelu o ka lithosfer, akā ʻo nā haki pū kekahi o ka lepo honua e komo i ka hoʻokumu ʻia ʻana o nā loko depression. Aia ka lalo o nā loko tectonic ma lalo o ka pae kai. Loaʻa ia mau waihona ma nā ʻāina āpau o ka honua, akā ʻo kā lākou helu nui loa aia ia i ka wahi hewa o ka pā honua.
