Ebi Lake
Ebi Lake (Mongolian: Ev nuur; Middle Mongolian: Ebi; Chinese: 艾比湖; pinyin: Àibǐ Hú) is a rift lake in north west China, near the border to Kazakhstan. Lying at the southeast end of the Dzungarian Gate, it is the catchment center of the southwestern part of the Dzungarian Basin. The lake has a size of over 1000 square kilomenters (400 square miles) and an average depth of less than 2 meters (6½ feet).
Due to the high salt concentration (87 g/L) of its water, no plants or fish live in the actual lake, though many kinds of fish do live in the mouths of its source rivers.
In August 2007, the Aibi Lake wetland was designated National Nature Reserve by the Chinese government.
The lake now only has 500 km2 surface

Biography
Early life and career
Ebi was born in Tehran, the eldest of six siblings. He received early musical schooling, as he was discovered by the Ministry of Art and Culture at a very early age. Declining an offer to further pursue classical schooling as an opera soloist in Italy, Ebi instead turned to popular music as a member in the group "Sun Boys". A major breakthrough was Ebi's performance of the song "Shab" (Night) at Fereydoun Farrokhzad's TV-show "Mikhak-e Noghreyi". During a series of planned concerts in the United States, Ebi, due to the revolution of 1979, decided not to return to Iran.
He left Iran before the Islamic Revolution;. He has performed his Iranian nationalistic song "Persian Gulf" that makes reference to the Iranian stand in the Persian Gulf naming dispute. Among other "politically charged" songs, Tasmim critically addressed the very controversial 2009 presidential election.
