About

Como Chamling (Tibetan: མཚོ་མོ་གྲམ་གླིང; Chinese: 错母折林) is a saline lake in eastern Dinggyê County, Tibet Autonomous Region, China, on the Tibetan Plateau. As of 2007, it has an area of 53.2 square kilometers (20.5 sq mi), down from 66.3 square kilometers (25.6 sq mi) in 1974, although the area of the lake fluctuates, both shrinking and expanding, over time. Most of this fluctuation occurs at the eastern end of the lake. To the north of the lake is both natural pastures and farmland.
