Lake Baikal – Lake Baikal is located inSiberia in southeastern Russia, just north of Mongolia. Considered the oldest surviving freshwater lake on the planet, it is also the deepest body of water in Asia at 5,315 feet (1,620 m), and the largest freshwater lake by volume, containing 20% of the planet's fresh water. An elongated lake, it has a maximum width of 60 miles (97 km) with an approximate length of 389 miles (626 km), and is fed by more than 300 rivers and streams.^[2]
Caspian Sea – Situated between Asia and Europe and fed by the Volga and Ural Rivers in the north, the Caspian Sea is nevertheless somewhat salty in its central and south portions. The surface area measures 371,000 square kilometres (143,000 sq mi), with a maximum depth of 1,025 metres (3,363 ft).^[2]

Aral Sea – Also in far-western Asia, just east of the Caspian Sea, the Aral Sea straddles the boundary betweenKazakhstan andUzbekistan. The Aral Sea is shrinking due to evaporation and diversion for irrigation (among other factors) and what remains (only 10% of its former size)^[3] is now almost totally polluted by fertilizer runoff, Soviet weapon testing residue and industrial projects,^[2] leading to it being called "one of the planet's worst environmental disasters".^[4]
