<p>+image</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>[[File:Oxbows of Usen.jpg|thumb|Bolshoy Uzen River]] <br /> '''Bolshoy Uzen''' ({{lang-kk|''Үлкен Өзен''}}, {{lang-ru|''Большой Узень''}}) is a river in [[Saratov Oblast]] of [[Russia]] and [[West Kazakhstan Province]] of [[Kazakhstan]]. It is {{convert|650|km|mi}} long, with a [[drainage basin]] of {{convert|15600|km2|mi2}}. <br /> <br /> The Bolshoy Uzen has its sources on the western edge of the [[Obshchy Syrt]] highlands of Russia, and flows in a generally southerly direction over the [[steppe]]s of the [[Caspian Depression]]. It terminates in West-Kazakhstan, in a network of small lakes and swamps called the [[Kamysh-Samarskiye Lakes]]. The Bolshoy Uzen runs parallel to the [[Maly Uzen River]], some {{convert|50|km|mi}} further west.<br /> <br /> Most of the river's waters comes from [[snowmelt]], so the river's flow peaks in April, while in the summer parts of the river will dry up completely. At Novouzensk the discharge varies from {{convert|7.3|to|393|m3/s|cuft/s}}. The river freezes over in December and stays icebound to the end of March or the beginning of April. <br /> <br /> The town of [[Novouzensk]] is situated at the Bolshoy Uzen. The river is used for water supply and irrigation.<br /> <br /> {{Rivers of Kazakhstan}}<br /> <br /> {{coord|48.9006|N|49.9122|E|source:wikidata|display=title}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Rivers of Saratov Oblast]]<br /> [[Category:Rivers of Kazakhstan]]</div>
