The Stanovoy Range (Russian: Станово́й хребе́т, Stanovoy khrebetYakut: Сир кура; traditional Chinese: 外興安嶺; simplified Chinese: 外兴安岭; pinyinWài Xīng'ān Lǐng), is a mountain range located in the Sakha Republic and Amur OblastFar Eastern Federal District. It is also known as Sükebayatur and Sükhbaatar in Mongolian, or the Stanovoy Mountains, or Outer Khingan Range in English. The range was first studied and scientifically described by Russian researcher Alexander von Middendorff.[2]

History[edit]

The range formed the border between Russia and China from 1689 (Treaty of Nerchinsk) to 1858 (Treaty of Aigun).

Etymology[edit]

The Evenks grouped the Dzhugdzhur, Stanovoy, and Yablonoi ranges under the name "Dzhugdzhur". In Evenk folklore this mountain system is known as the "backbone of the Earth".[3][4]

Geography[edit]

The range runs roughly from west to east at the southern end of the Sakha Republic and the northern limit of Amur Oblast for roughly 700 kilometers (430 mi). It is bound by the Olyokma River in the west and the Uchur River in the east, which separates it from the Dzhugdzhur Range in Khabarovsk Krai to the east.[5] The Aldan Highlands are located to the north of the eastern part of the range and the Olyokma-Chara Plateau to the northwest.[6] The Yankan – Tukuringra – Soktakhan – Dzhagdy group of mountain ranges rise to the south and the Maya Range to the southeast.

The highest point of the range is Skalisty Golets, a ‘’golets’’-type mountain with a bald peak, at 2,412 meters (7,913 ft).[7]

Hydrography[edit]

The Stanovoy Range separates the watershed of the Arctic Ocean (basin of the Lena) from that of the Pacific Ocean (Amur basin). The range has many glaciers, which are among the main sources of the Lena. Rivers Maya and Timpton have their sources in the range. The Zeya has its sources in the Toko-Stanovik subrange located at the eastern end.[8]
