The Klamath Basin is a region located in southern Oregon and northern California, centered around the Klamath River. It is known for its diverse ecosystems, including wetlands, forests, and lakes, which support a variety of wildlife. The basin is also significant for agriculture, with irrigation systems that help farmers grow crops in the arid climate. The Klamath Basin is home to several important bodies of water, including Upper Klamath Lake and Klamath River. The area has a rich cultural history, with indigenous tribes such as the Klamath Tribe and Modoc Tribe having lived there for thousands of years. Today, the basin faces environmental challenges, including water management issues and habitat preservation.
