The Kulunda SteppeorKulunda Plain[1] (Russian: Кулундинская равнина, Kazakh: Құлынды даласы, Qūlyndy dalasy) is an alluvial plaininRussia and Kazakhstan. It is an important agricultural region in Western Siberia.

Geography[edit]

The steppe is located between the Ob and Irtysh rivers in the southern part of the West Siberian Plain, to the west of the Ob Plateau. Steppe landscapes predominate, especially in the north and east of the plain, which extends across the Altai Krai of Russia and the Pavlodar OblastofKazakhstan, with a small northern section in the Novosibirsk Oblast, as well as small southern part in the East Kazakhstan Oblast.[2]

There are large lakes in the central part of the Kulunda plain, such as Lake Kuchuk, Kulunda, Bolshoye Topolnoye, Ulken Azhbolat, Ulken Tobylzhan, Maraldy and Bolshoye Yarovoye. Most of them are salty or briny, but Borli and Uyaly are soda lakes.[3]

The main rivers are the Kuchuk, Kulunda and Burla. The Baraba Steppe lies to the northwest. The border between both plains is not well defined. Conventionally, it is carried out at 54 degrees north latitude.[4]
