Lake Kulunda

It is an endorheic lake located in the eastern side of the Kulunda Plain, near the western limit of the Ob Plateau.

The white areas are salty minerals that were deposited on the surface as water evaporated rendering the water hypersaline, with a mineralization of 111.5 g/L, suitable for a native population of brine shrimp (Artemia sp.).

[4] A well-established shelter belt system (a series of three parallel lines adjoining end to end) runs generally north-south along the eastern side of Lake Kulunda to form a manmade barrier to help protect against wind erosion.

The cultivated field patterns nearby are large and roughly rectangular in shape.
