Geography
- Central Siberian Plateau, a large elevated zone between the Yenisei and Lena rivers composed of various plateaus (Putorana Plateau, Anabar Plateau, Vilyuy Plateau, and Lena Plateau among others) deeply dissected by river valleys. Area Шаблон:Convert.[2]
- Central Yakutian Lowland, the alluvial plain of the middle Lena River separating the Central Siberian Plateau to the west and the East Siberian Mountains to the east. Area Шаблон:Convert.[3]
- East European Plain, a very large area that comprises the plains and depressions west and southwest of the Urals crossed by numerous large rivers, such as the Volga, Dnieper, Don and Pechora. Area approximately Шаблон:Convert.[2]
- East Siberian Lowland, a vast alluvial plain, swampy and dotted with thousands of lakes. The region includes the Yana-Indigirka, Kolyma and Aby lowlands, as well as the New Siberian Islands. Area about Шаблон:Convert.[4]
- East Siberian Mountains, a large mountainous area located in northeastern Siberia. It includes two large mountain systems, the Verkhoyansk Range and the Chersky Range, as well as other minor ones. To the east it reaches Cape Dezhnyov in the Bering Strait. Area approximately Шаблон:Convert.[5]
- North Siberian Lowland, a plain with a relatively flat relief separating the Byrranga Mountains of the Taymyr Peninsula in the north from the Central Siberian Plateau in the south. Area approximately Шаблон:Convert.[6]
- South Siberian Mountains, stretching roughly from east to west in the Siberian and Far Eastern Federal Districts of Russia, as well as partly in Mongolia. Area approximately Шаблон:Convert.[7]
- West Siberian Plain, large alluvial plain between the Urals to the west and the Yenisei River to the east, beyond which rises the Central Siberian Plateau.
