&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;The '''Emin Valley''' ({{zh|c=额敏谷地|p=Émǐn gǔdì}}) is located on the [[China]]-[[Kazakhstan]] border, in [[Central Asia]]. It has an area of about {{convert|65000|km2|mi2}}. Its main waterway is the [[Emil River]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Administratively, the Emin Valley occupies areas of [[Tacheng Prefecture]] in the [[Xinjiang]] Region of north-western China; and in [[East Kazakhstan Province]] of eastern Kazakhstan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Ecology==&lt;br /&gt;
The Emin Valley has a [[steppe]] ecosystem of mostly [[grassland]]s; with two [[saline lake]]s, [[Lake Alakol|Alakol]] and [[Lake Sasykkol|Sasykkol]]; and mountains with temperate climates.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Emin Valley Steppe is a [[Palearctic]] [[ecoregion]] in the [[Temperate grasslands, savannas, and shrublands]] [[Biome]]. It lies within the vast and larger [[Eurasian Steppe]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Hydrology==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Orography|Orographically]], the Emil Valley is an [[endorrheic basin]]. In the north, the [[Tarbagatai Mountains]] separate it from the [[Lake Zaysan]] basin, which is part of the basin of the [[Irtysh]] River, eventually draining into the [[Arctic Ocean]]. In the southeast, another series of mountain ranges separate it from the [[Dzungaria]]n Basin ([[Gurbantünggüt Desert]]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Emin Valley's main watercourse is the [[Emil River|Emin (Emil) River]], which flows in the general western direction, receiving numerous streams flowing from the Tarbagatai Mountains and carrying their water to Lake Alakol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Lake Alakol]] and [[Lake Sasykkol]], situated in the western (Kazakhstan) part of the valley, are the homes of the rare [[Dalmatian pelican]] and [[relict gull]].&lt;br /&gt;
