The Oymyakonsky District ( Russian Оймяконский улус even Оймяконский район , Oimjakonski rayon; Yakut улууһа Өймөкөөн , Öjmököön uluuha ) is one of 34 Ulusse ( Rajons ) of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) in the north of the Russian Federal District Far East . It is located south of the Arctic Circle on the eastern border of the republic to Magadan Oblast and the Khabarovsk region inland. The village of Oymyakon , famous for its cold records, is the administrative seat of a rural community of Ulus.

geography

The Ulus has an area of ​​about 92,200 km², slightly larger than Austria . It includes the headwaters of the Indigirka and its upper tributaries. The landscape has mostly high mountain character . The mountains in the south belong to the Verkhoyansk Mountains , the highest peak of which, Mus Khaya , reaches 2959  m above sea level. To the north of the Ulus, the Indigirka breaks through the Tscherski Mountains . The 2682  m high Tschen rises there . In the south and east, the continental divide between the Arctic and Pacific Oceans forms the boundary of the Ulus.

The vegetation consists of taiga in protected areas and tundra in higher altitudes .

Demographics

The population began to rise earlier than in parts of the republic further northeast, as part of the Kolyma labor camps were located in the area from the 1930s , but then remained relatively constant until around 1990. Due to the emigration that can also be observed in neighboring Ulussen since the end of the Soviet Union, it is now more than half below the value of 1959:

1939 - 03,560
1959 - 22,947
1970 - 21,636
1989 - 32,320
2002 - 14,670
2010 - 10,109

The population consists, with an increasing tendency, of members of indigenous ethnic groups , which is still less than in the surrounding Ulussen. Among the members of ethnic groups who immigrated from the European part, the proportion of Ukrainians is relatively high compared to the republic .
