Aral Sea - the former endorheic salt lake in Central Asia, on the border of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. Since 1960-ies of XX century the sea level (and the volume of water in it) rapidly decreases due to diversion of water from the main feeder rivers Amu Darya and Syr Darya rivers for irrigation purposes. Until the early depletion of the Aral Sea was the fourth largest lake in the world.
