349:(1.6-2.2 km/km), the river system density is the highest (1–2 km/km) at 1,000-2,500 kilometers, while in the area of the Talysh mountains it peaks at 1.6-2.2 km/km at 500-1,000 km. The average density of the river system of Azerbaijan is 0.39 km/km. The density is even lower than 0.05 km/km in the plains.

Azerbaijan river systems are changing and evolving under the influence of various physiographic factors: climate, landscape, geological structure, soil and vegetation. The density of the river network increases, then gradually decreases later with higher altitudes. Except for the Talysh region

The Kura River basin area (86,000 km) up to the junction with the Aras River is smaller than the Aras water basin (101,937 km). The river is still called Kura on the junction because the water level of the Kura is twice as high as that of the Aras River.
