Volga River
The Delta of the
Volga Looking from space, sometimes the delta will look like a large fan, or maybe the root system of a plant.
Sediment and Pollution into the Caspian SeaThe Caspian Sea is filling up with sediment and industrial waste! This image lets us see how the pollution is flowing into the sea from the river.
This is the mouth of the Volga River (in Russia) as it empties into the Caspian Sea. The Volga is the largest river system in Europe.
