course

The Sundrun rises in the eastern part of the Ulachan-Sis ridge , which rises from the Kolyma lowlands , the eastern part of the extensive East Siberian lowlands . From its northern flank it flows, quickly leaving the foothills of the mountain ridge, predominantly north-northeast and winding through unpopulated areas of the lowlands. Finally, it flows east of the Indigirka Delta into the East Siberian Sea , part of the Arctic Ocean .

Hydrology and ice drift

The catchment area of the Sundrun is 4,170 km², and its largest tributary is the 235 km long, right-hand Kleine Chomus-Jurjach . The river is covered by ice from the beginning of October to mid-June every year . When the snow and ice melt in summer and the permafrost thaws, there is strong flood .

Flora and fauna

The landscape of thousands of lakes and numerous swamps is wandered through by many reindeer , there are nuns (also called Siberian cranes ), brent and pygmy geese and pygmy swans and the waters are rich in fish.
