==Geography== The Daryalyktakyr lies north of the lower reaches of the [[Syr Darya]] and corresponds to an ancient channel where the river flowed. It extends roughly from WNW to ESE for a length of {{Convert|230|km|mi|abbr=on}} between the area to the north of [[Josaly|Zhosaly]] town in the west and the [[Telikol]] lakes in the east.<ref name="STMa">{{cite web|url=https://maps.vlasenko.net/smtm1000/l-41.jpg|title=L-41 Topographic Chart (in Russian)|access-date=14 November 2022}}</ref><ref name="STMb">{{cite web|url=https://maps.vlasenko.net/smtm1000/l-42.jpg|title=L-42 Topographic Chart (in Russian)|access-date=14 November 2022}}</ref>
It is a large, elongated [[Takir (soil)|takir]] zone to the north of the current river channel covered with a top layer of [[alluvium|alluvial]] sediments of mixed sand and clay. There are some [[solonetz]] and [[solonchak]] areas, as well as some small lakes and swamps at the southern edge. The [[Karaozek (river)|Karaozek]] river, a right tributary of the Syr Darya, flows westwards along the southern limits of the plain.<ref name="KЕ">''Kazakhstan National Encyclopedia'' / Ch. ed. B.O.
