Why the Dead Sea Lacks Life
The Dead Sea is a deep salt lake between Jordan and Israel with no outlet. It sits 1,286 feet below sea level, is 51 miles long and up to 11 miles wide, and concentrates minerals through evaporation, making its water about six times saltier than the ocean and inhospitable to animal life.
