The Tom (Russian: Томь, IPA: [tomʲ]; Siberian Tatar: Том; Shor: Том) is a river in Russia, a right tributary of the Ob in central Siberia. Its watershed lies within the Republic of Khakassia, Kemerovo Oblast, and Tomsk Oblast.[1] It is 827 kilometres (514 mi) long, and has a drainage basin of 62,000 square kilometres (24,000 sq mi).[2]
The Tom flows from the Abakan Range (a northern continuation of the Altai Mountains) northward through the Kuznetsk Basin. It joins the Ob approximately 50 kilometers (31 mi) north of Tomsk.
Cities on the Tom River include Mezhdurechensk, Novokuznetsk, Kemerovo, Yurga, Tomsk, and Seversk.
The Aba people live near the Tom River.
