 Course of the Tym (Тым) in the catchment area of the Ob |
||
The Tym ( Russian Тым ) is a 950-kilometer-long right tributary of the Ob in Western Siberia ( Russia , Asia ).
course
The Tym rises at a height of about 180 m in the southeastern part of the West Siberian lowlands , in the area of the flat, marshy watershed between Ob and Yenisei in the west of the Krasnoyarsk region . It initially flows through the lowlands in a westerly direction, reaches the northeast of Tomsk Oblast and turns there in a southwesterly direction, which it maintains until its mouth.
The tym meanders strongly throughout the course . It finally flows into the Ob near the village of Ust-Tym at a height of 42 m . Almost ten kilometers above, the Radaika estuary branches off, which joins the Milja arm a little further north .
The most important tributaries are the Wanschil, Podelga, Kossez and Sangilka from the right and the Polta from the left.
Hydrography
The catchment area of the Tym covers 32,300 km². Near the mouth, the river is almost 200 meters wide and three meters deep; the flow velocity is 0.8 m / s.
The Tym freezes from October / early November to the end of April / May and floods when the snowmelts in May to August. The mean water flow near the mouth is about 250 m³ / s; in the village of Napas located on the central reaches 272 kilometers above the estuary still 191 m³ / s, with a minimum monthly mean of 59.2 m³ / s in March and a maximum monthly mean of 628 m³ / s in June.
Infrastructure
The Tym is navigable for 560 kilometers from the confluence of the Wanschil and the Wanschil-Kynak weather station located there.
The river flows through very sparsely populated areas. A good half of the Selkupen , an indigenous Siberian people, live here. Between the already mentioned places Napas and Ust-Tymsk there are only the villages Molodjoschny and Negotka on the river, on the navigable tributary Sangilka a few kilometers away the village Tolparowo. Only in the area of these places there are few unpaved roads; there is no bridge.
