Lake Mweru Wantipa or Mweru-wa-Ntipa meaning "muddy lake" (also called 'Mweru Marsh') is a lake and swamp system in the Northern Province of Zambia. It has been regarded in the past as something of mystery, displaying fluctuations in water level and salinity which were not entirely explained by variation in rainfall levels; it has been known to dry out almost completely. This is compounded by its remoteness and it not receiving the same attention from geographers and geologists as its larger and more accessible neighbours, Lake Tanganyika, 25 km east, and Lake Mweru, 40 km west, with which its name is sometimes confused.

  • Het Mweru-Wantipameer is een meer en moeras in de Noordprovincie van Zambia. Het meer ligt tussen twee grotere meren, het Tanganyikameer 40 km ten oosten, en het Mwerumeer 40 km ten westen van het meer.

  • 姆韋魯萬蒂帕湖(Lake Mweru Wantipa)是贊比亞北方省有大量河馬和鱷魚生活的。湖水從小型河流和溪流注入,湖泊的出口處海拔942米,而湖面海拔只有932米,因此只在雨季時才有湖水流出,湖泊曾經乾涸。過往湖泊的鹽度變化很大,1929年和1939年是淡水湖,但1949年卻測量是鹹水湖。 (zh)
  • El lago Mweru Wantipa (también transcrito como 'Mweru-wa-Ntipa' y también llamado 'pantano Mweru') es un lago y un sistema pantanoso de África Central localizado en la Provincia del Norte de Zambia. En el pasado fue considerado un lago misterioro, ya que las fluctuaciones del nivel del agua y de su salinidad no se explican enteramente por la variación de las precipitaciones. Esto se ve agravado por su lejanía y que no recibe la misma atención de los geógrafos y geólogos como los lagos vecinos, más grandes y más accesibles, como el lago Tanganica, a 25 km al este, o el lago Mweru, a 40 km al oeste, con el que a veces se confunde dado su nombre. Se sabe que el lago se secado casi por completo en alguna ocasión.​ (es)

  • Il lago Mweru Wantipa (a volte scritto come Mweru-wa-Ntipa e anche chiamato palude Mweru) è allo stesso tempo un lago e un sistema pantanoso dell'Africa Centrale localizzato nella Provincia del Nord della Zambia. Nel passato fu considerato un lago misterioso, giacché le fluttuazioni del livello dell'acqua e della sua salinità non si spiegano interamente con la variazione delle precipitazioni. Ciò era ingigantito dalla sua lontananza, che non permetteva ai geografi e ai geologi di prestare la stessa attenzione di quella riservata ai laghi vicini, più grandi e più accessibili, come il lago Tanganica, a 25 km all'est, o il lago Mweru, a 40 km all'ovest, con cui spesso si confonde a ragione del suo nome. Si sa che il lago si è asciugato quasi completamente in qualche occasione. (it)
  • Mweru Wantipa – jezioro i system mokradeł w zambijskiej Prowincji Północnej. W przeszłości uważane za tajemnicze z uwagi na występujące w nim fluktuacje poziomu wody i zasolenia, które nie mogły być w pełni wyjaśnione przez różnice w opadach. Znane z tego, że wyschło niemal całkowicie. Objęte jest ochroną w ramach Parku Narodowego Mweru Wantipa. (pl)
  • Мве́ру-Вантипа (англ. Lake Mweru Wantipa) — озеро и система болот в Северной провинции Замбии. В прошлом озеро считалось таинственным из-за колебаний уровня воды и солёности, которые не были полностью объяснимы изменением уровня осадков, известны случаи, когда озеро полностью пересыхало. Из-за своего труднодоступного положения Мверу-Вантипа менее изучено географами и геологами по сравнению со своими более крупными соседями: Танганьика и Мверу, из-за схожести названий Мверу-Вантипа иногда путают с последним.
