(I have edited your query, since only one question is
allowed per post.)
There's really no comparison when it
comes to the sizes of Hudson Bay and Lake Superior: The second largest bay in the world,
Hudson Bay is vastly larger. Hudson Bay is more than 850 miles long, compared to Lake
Superior's 350 miles. Hudson Bay comprises 470,000 square miles, while Lake Superior is
less than one-tenth that size (31,820 square miles). One of the largest fresh-water
lakes in the world, Lake Superior is somewhat deeper, however (1332 feet maximum to
Hudson Bay's 330 feet). Hudson Bay drains an area of nearly 1.5 million square miles
compared to Lake Superior's water catchment area of 49,305 square
miles.
