The Palyavaam (Russian: Паляваам) is a river in the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug, Russian Far East. It is 416 kilometres (258 mi) long, and has a drainage basin of 12,900 square kilometres (5,000 sq mi).[1]
There is a small populated place in its basin also called Palyavaam. The Humpback whitefish, the East Siberian Grayling, Pink salmon, Chum salmon and Arctic char, are some of the fish species found in its waters.
Course
[edit | edit source]It has its source in the Palyavaam Range of the Chukotka Mountains. The Palyavaam flows in a roughly westward direction and passes through the sparsely populated areas of Chukotka. Finally it flows into the Chaun close to its outflow into the East Siberian Sea,[1] at the Chaunskaya Bay near Rytkuchi.
The Palyavaam has numerous tributaries. The most important ones are the Elkakvun, Palyarynnat, Karpungveyem, Levtuttyveyem, Kookvyn, Vykvylvegyrgyn and Pekychyn.
