		It also reaches the Arctic Ocean at two points, in the Nisovaya tundra, west of the Khatanga River, and in a comparatively small enclosure in the Yana basin over against the Lyakhov (New Siberia) Archipelago.
		The Amur is still mainly a Tungus river almost from its source to its mouth: the Oroches (Orochus), Daurians, Birars, Golds, Manegrs, Sanagirs, Ngatkons, Nigidals, and some other aboriginal tribes scattered along the main stream and its affluents - the Shilka, Sungari and Usuri - are all of Tungus stock and speech.
		On the Pacific the chief subdivisions of the race are the Lamuts, or "sea people," grouped in small isolated hunting communities round the west coast of the Sea of Okhotsk, and farther south the Tazi between the Amur delta and Korea.

	Nutrient budgets for the Laptev Sea shelf
		There is a wide and short underwater valley in front of the Lena River mouth, an underwater valley expanding to the north from the Olenek Gulf and a long, narrow valley stretching northward from Stolbovoy Island.
		Nutrient distributions and variability in the Laptev Sea are related to life cycles of marine organisms, river influx, water mass advection from the Arctic Basin and adjacent seas and hydrometeorological conditions.
		The catchment area of the rivers is located in the territory of the Yakutia (Saha) republic, in which a few towns (Yakutsk, Lensk) are located along the middle and upper Lena River, but the population density is low.
