The Aral Sea is a regional ecosystem, located in present day
Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, formerly countries of the Soviet Union. Although the
Aral Sea is located only in Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, the Aral basin is shared
by three additional countries: Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, and Tajikistan (1, 4).
Once one large lake, it has since split into four smaller lakes: the North Aral
Sea (Little Aral), the west and east portions of the South Aral Sea (Big Aral),
and a small lake in between the North and South Seas.
