• Alazeia — A major river located in northeastern Siberia, within the Sakha Republic (Yakutia), Russian Federation; a watercourse with a length of approximately 1,590 km, which rises from the Alazeia Plateau and structurally flows through the East Siberian Lowland in a catchment basin marked by thousands of lakes, emptying into the East Siberian Sea (Arctic Ocean). This river is characterized by an extreme hydrological regime, remaining frozen from late September until early June, serving as a vital ecological artery for the subarctic tundra and forest-tundra zones.
