Question

the caspian sea is in asia...

Answer 1

From MS Encarta:
Its level varies from year to year but averages about 28 m (92 ft) below sea level. In the 1960s and 1970s the level fell substantially, partly because water was withdrawn from tributary rivers for irrigation and other purposes. In 1980 a dike was built across the mouth of Garabogazköl Gulf in northwestern Turkmenistan to reduce water loss, creating a lake that was expected to last for several years. Instead, the gulf dried up completely by 1983. In the meantime, the level of the Caspian Sea began rising again at a rate of about 14 to 20 cm (about 6 to 8 in) annually.

;-D An interesting place to visit.
