Geography
Lake Bolshoy Azhbulat is an endorheic lake located in the Kulunda Steppe, southern part of the West Siberian Plain, west of the Russian border. There is an elongated island in the middle of the lake. The Burla river flows into the eastern lakeshore.[3] In years of adequate rainfall the river reaches the lake, but in dry years it ends in Lake Bolshoye Topolnoye, located 22 kilometers (14 mi) to the east, on the other side of the Russia/Kazakhstan border.[5]
There are smaller lakes in the immediate vicinity of Bolshoy Azhbulat, including Maly Azhbulat (Кіші Әжболат), an intermittent lake on the eastern side, as well as Lake Klevkino (Клевкино) to the south.[3]
