Relief, climate and natural resources of Altai Krai
Two types of landscapes prevail in Altai: mountainous in the east and steppe in the west. Taiga occupies considerable areas. Unique stripes of pine forests stretch out on hundreds of kilometers. Forest fund of Altai occupies more than one fifth of its territory. Rich vegetation is accompanied with diversity of fauna.
The climate of Altai Krai is moderately continental, with hot summers and cold winters. Altai is considered to be one of the sunniest regions of Western Siberia in the quantity of sunny days. The length of sunny time is approximately 2000-2300 hours a year. Average temperature in January is 17.6°C below zero, and +18°C - in July. Steady snow cover is formed in the beginning of November, and its abundant melting starts in late March - early April.
Altai's most important waterway is the Ob River, which is formed as a result of the convergence of the Biya and the Кatun rivers. The greatest rivers are the Biya, the Katun, the Ob, the Alei and the Charysh. Many of the lakes found in the flat part of the Krai (mostly in Kulundinskaya Steppe) are saline and bitter. Lake Kolyvanskoye is the largest among 13000 lakes, its area is about 728 sq.km.
The Krai is rich in diverse natural recourses. Minerals are represented by the deposits of complex ores, iron, common salt, soda, gypsum, brown coal and precious stones. Krai is also famous of its unique deposits of jasper, malachite, porphyry, marbles, granite, building materials, and it has wonderful medical resources.
