The Yamal Peninsula is a large peninsula located in northwestern Siberia, Russia. It extends into the Kara Sea and is known for its unique Arctic landscape, which includes tundra, forests, and numerous rivers. The region is sparsely populated, primarily inhabited by the Nenets people, who traditionally engage in reindeer herding. The peninsula is rich in natural resources, particularly natural gas, making it an important area for energy production. The Yamal LNG project, a liquefied natural gas facility, has been developed to exploit these resources. The harsh climate features long, cold winters and short, cool summers, influencing the local ecosystem and lifestyle.
