赞比西河(英语:Zambezi River)是非洲第四长河流,也是从非洲大陆流入印度洋的最长河流,当地方言意为“巨大的河流”[3]

赞比西河是非洲南部的大河,源于赞比亚西北部,距刚果河的源头约1公里;河流上游有一部分经过安哥拉,但大部分位于赞比亚境内海拔约1000米的巴罗茨高原,经过纳米比亚博茨瓦纳的边境后,到达长130多公里的巴托卡峡谷(Batoka Canyon)时形成了著名的维多利亚瀑布,然后沿赞比亚与津巴布韦的边境线冲过卡里巴峡谷(Kariba Canyon)进入莫桑比克境内的平原,水流开始趋缓,成为非洲东南部主要的航运河道,最后在欣代附近注入莫桑比克海峡

赞比西河全长2574公里,流域面积约1,390,000平方公里[1][2],约为尼罗河的一半,年均流量1.6万[来源请求]立方米/秒,干流河道中共有72处瀑布,河流水力的总蕴藏量约1.37亿千瓦。

经济

赞比西河谷大约有3200万人。约八成的居民仰赖农业为生,上游的泛滥平原提供了适于农耕的土地。
