Cold water actually holds more suspended oxygen than warm water, but the cold itself does inhibit bacteria that would decompose the bodies, so you're mostly correct.
Not just corpses. The wrecks themselves are well-preserved. It's cold, it's freshwater, and has been navigated for long enough that it is one of the best places on earth to study shipwrecks.
But due to the corpses more recent wrecks are very restricted. Basically if the crew members are in living memory they don't want people exploring the wrecks since the bodies are still recognizable.
Akshually, Michigan-Huron is a single lake, hydrologically speaking of course, which has 1.5 times the surface area of Lake Superior.
But Superior still manages to contain 1.5 times the water volume in just 66% of the surface area, comprising 10% of the surface fresh water on planet earth. That's one deep boi. Aptly named I must say
If you make that argument to Midwesterners at best you will be noggied, have your underwear pulled over your head, and all your linch money taken.
At worst the Cost Guard will come give you a stern talking to since international treaties have determined that Lake Michigan is an entirely US owned body of water that Candad has to keep their dirty paws off of.
Oh yeah, big time. I don't think any of the great lakes would actually fit that description though. The problem with warm lakes is that there's usually a lot more biological activity going on, so the water tends to be much less clear.
I'd prefer to swim in a cold, clear lake instead of a warm, murky lake any day of the week. That's how you get infected by one of these bad boys.
Slavey or just Slave is a translation of Awokanak,[2] the name given to Dene by the Cree "who sometimes raided and enslaved their less aggressive northern neighbors".[3][4][5] The names of the Slave River, Lesser Slave River, Great Slave Lake, and Lesser Slave Lake all derive from this Cree nam
The name Slavey is seldom used by the people themselves, who call themselves Dene. Indigenous ethnonyms for South Slavey people and language are Dehcho, Deh Cho Dene ("Mackenzie River People") or Dene Tha.[6]
Did you know that the word "slave" comes from the late Latin word scalvus, meaning "slav"? This is because the overwhelming majority of slaves were slavic prisoners, so "slav" just became synonymous with forced laborer
Slavic history is absolutely wild with stuff like that. Eastern Europe has seen countless mass movements of people through it ranging from peaceful Romani migration from India to Operation Barbarossa torching, killing, and raping everything between Gdansk and Moscow.
Life in Eastern Europe has always been hard, and i really do admire the people that continue to live there after 3 thousand years of pillaging, plagues, famine, and genocide from all directions.i once had a history professor describe Eastern Europe as "the world's genetic dumping ground" which is pretty brutal, but fairly apt.
It's still slavery themed, if not perpetrated by the usual suspects.

They were literally named slaves by their neighbours, and that is the name we have for them, nice.
