Geography edit

Soluntakh lake is located north of the Arctic circle, in the central part of the Yana-Indigirka Lowland. It is crossed from west to east by the 247 km (153 mi) long Kyuyol-Yuryakh river, which enters its western shore roughly in the middle. All other inflowing rivers are small. There are many smaller lakes in the vicinity. The lake begins to freeze in mid September and stays under ice until early June.[6][3][7]

Fauna edit

The greater white-fronted goose and bean goose are some of the bird species known to nest in the lake.[8] Soluntakh has also been explored as one of the probable sites providing a habitat for the Siberian crane, a critically endangered species.[9] Lake Soluntakh is rich in fish.[10][6]
