Wadi Kub
The 883rd longest river in the world
Wadi Kub (Wādī Kūb), is a dry valley or river with intermittent flow, which flows almost exclusively during the rainy season, located northeast of the United Arab Emirates, in the emirates of Fujairah and Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah. It belongs to the inner drainage basin of the Wadi Mu'taridah / Wadi Mutarid / Wadi Al Mithaddim (65 km2 (25 mi2)), of which it is a tributary on the left, and extends through a sub-basin of 34.14 km2 (13.18 mi2). It limits to the north with the Wadi Tawiyaen / Wādī Ţawīyayn basin, and with the sub-basins of the Wadi Mu'taridah / Wadi Mutarid and the Wadi Al Himriyyah; to the east with the watershed that defines the watercourses that flow into the Persian Gulf and those that flow into the Gulf of Oman, and with the Wadi Basseirah hydrographic basin; and to the south and west with the drainage basin of the Wadi Mawrid, although some authors consider that the bordering basin to the south is that of the Wādī Adhan / Wadi Idhn. The source of the main channel of the Wadi Kub is located on the southern slope of the ridge that borders to the north the town of Al Jaroof / Al Jurouf (in), in the Emirate of Fujairah, and follows a course of approximately 17 km (11 mi) until its mouth in the Wadi Mu'taridah / Wadi Mutarid, shortly before the town of Saram, at the foot of Jabal Satif (367 m (1, 204 ft)), in the Emirate
