The Mertvyy Kultuk Salt Flat (bottom center) and the Kaydak Salt Flat (bottom left) are a part of the Caspian Depression and were once covered with water. The mouth of the Ural River is visible along the top of the image. The outer edges of the Volga River Delta are visible near the top center of the image.
