 Catchment area of the Tas |
||
The Tas ( Russian Таз ) is a 1401 km long river in the north of Western Siberia .
It rises in the east of the West Siberian lowlands and flows from there in north to north-westerly directions through extensive marshland , crosses the Arctic Circle and flows into the Tasbusen at Tasowski . This also picks up the pure from the west and finally flows into the obbus .
The most important tributaries are the Tschasselka and Tolka from the left and the Bolshaya Shirta (Great Shirta), Chudossei and Russkaya from the right.
The catchment area of 150,000 km² through which it flows is only very sparsely populated: just under 15,000 people (corresponding to 0.01 inhabitants / km²) live there, mostly concentrated in a few places directly on the Tasman river. The Tas flows through the Krasnoselkupski rajon with the villages Ratta , Kikkiakki , Tolka and the administrative center Krasnoselkup as well as the southern part of the Tasowski rajon named after him with the village Gas-Sale and the settlement Tasowski . The area on the upper and middle reaches of the Tas with the Krasnoselkupski rajon named after them is one of the settlement areas of the small Selkupen ethnic group : about a third of a total of 4,000 lives there.
About 175 km as the crow flies above the mouth and 100 km north (downstream) of today's Krasnoselkup was one of the first Russian cities in Siberia, Mangaseja , on the right bank of the Tas in the 17th century . About 40 km below Krasnoselkup, the Arctic Circle Railway Salekhard - Igarka was to cross the river, on which construction began in 1947. Remains of the partially completed building project, which was abandoned in 1953, have been preserved near the river. In particular, the area on the lower reaches of the Tas has become economically interesting with the exploration and exploitation of natural gas deposits from the 1970s.
