Pacific coast of Asia is washed by the Bering Sea, the Sea of Okhotsk and the Sea of Japan in its north-eastern part. They are also known as Far-Eastern seas of Russia. These water bodies are related to the group of margin seas, as they are located at the outskirts of the continent and are separated from the mainland by the island arcs – Aleutian, Kurile and Japanese.
coastal zone
Тихоокеанское побережье Азии омывается Беринговым морем, Охотским и японским морями в его северо-восточной части. Они также известны как дальневосточные моря России. Эти водоемы относятся к группе окраинных морей, так как расположены на окраинах материка и отделены от материка островными дугами – Алеутской, Курильской и японской.
