WHAT DOES USSURI MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Ussuri

Ussuri River

The Ussuri River or Wusuli River, runs through Khabarovsk and Primorsky Krais, Russia, and the southeast region of Northeast China. It rises in the Sikhote-Alin mountain range, flowing north and forming part of the Sino-Russian border until it joins the Amur River as a tributary to it at Khabarovsk. It is approximately 897 kilometers long. The Ussuri River drains the Ussuri basin, which covers 193,000 square kilometers. Its waters come from rain, snow and subterranean springs. The average discharge is 1,150 m³/s and the average elevation is 1,682 m. The Ussuri River has a reputation for catastrophic floods. It freezes up in November and stays under the ice until April. The river teems with different kinds of fish: grayling, sturgeon, humpback salmon, chum salmon and others. During World War II, the river marked one of the boundaries which Soviet forces crossed into Manchuria in Operation August Storm in 1945. The Sino-Soviet border conflict of 1969 took place at the Soviet Damansky Island on the Ussuri River.
