geography

The Nizhnekolymski ulus has an area of about 86,800 km². It is named after its location on the lower Kolyma (Russian Nizhnyaya Kolyma ), where the Nizhnekolymsk settlement of the same name is located opposite the confluence of the Anjui on the left bank . The ulus covers the northeast of the East Siberian lowlands . The lower reaches and estuary deltas of the Alaseja and Kolyma are located on its territory from west to east . There are also numerous lakes. The Rajonsitz Tscherski lies in the east of the Ulus on the lower reaches of the Kolyma. In front of the mainland are the Medweschji Islands .

Most of the vegetation consists of tundra .
