How many man made lakes are in Oklahoma?
Zero.DubyaThompson wrote:The only natural lakes in Oklahoma are a series of oxbow and playa lakes. The typically crescent-shaped oxbow lakes are found in abandoned channels (oxbows) of a meandering stream and occur mainly on flood plains of the major rivers, such as the Red, Arkansas, Washita, North Canadian, and Verdigris Rivers in eastern and central Oklahoma. Oklahoma has sixty-two oxbow lakes, each of which covers at least ten acres, and the largest, near the Red River in McCurtain County, is 272 acres.Playa lakes form in shallow, saucer-like depressions scattered across the semiarid High Plains region of northwestern Oklahoma and the Panhandle. These water bodies are characterized by internal drainage and have no outflow. They hold water during and after rainy seasons, and most of the water is lost through evaporation and/or seepage into the ground. Only a few playa lakes last year-round, but the intermittent or ephemeral playa lakes number about six hundred and appear following thunderstorms.Taken from http://digital.library.okstate.edu/encyclopedia/entries/L/LA010.html
