Velvelechay (river)

The Velvelechay is a river located in Azerbaijan. It originates in the Greater Caucasus Mountains and flows generally southeastward before emptying into the Caspian Sea. The river is relatively short in length and is used primarily for irrigation and local water supply. The Velvelechay's drainage basin is relatively small, and its flow rate can vary significantly depending on seasonal precipitation and snowmelt. The river's ecosystem supports a variety of aquatic life, though it is impacted by agricultural runoff and other human activities within its watershed. Detailed hydrological studies and ecological surveys of the Velvelechay are relatively limited compared to larger rivers in the region.
