'''Nogliki''' ({{langx|ru|Ноглики}}) is an [[types of inhabited localities in Russia|urban locality]] (an [[urban-type settlement]]) and the [[administrative center]] of [[Nogliksky District]] of [[Sakhalin Oblast]], [[Russia]], located near the eastern coast of [[Sakhalin|Sakhalin Island]], about {{convert|6|km|sp=us}} inland from the [[Sea of Okhotsk]] shoreline and about {{convert|600|km|sp=us}} north of [[Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk]]. Population: {{ru-census|p2010=10,231|p2002=10,729|p1989=11,546}}
==History==
It was founded in the late 1940s with the beginnings of [[petroleum]] production in the area.{{citation needed|date=November 2012}} It was granted urban-type settlement status in 1960.{{citation needed|date=November 2012}}
Some believe that this ethnonym owes its origin to the self-name of one of the clans of the Sakhalin Nivkhs “Noglan”, and the historical name of their camp is called “Noglvo”, or in the Russian version of “Nogliki”. Others believe that in its first principle it is a hydronym, and connect the appearance of the name of the settlement with the small river Nogliki - the right tributary of the Imchin river, which flows, in turn, into the Tym river in its lowest reaches. In modern pronunciation, these names, of course, are a distortion of the original, for the Nivkhs called the Nogly-ngi river, and their camp, which was once located on the site of the present regional center, was called Nogl-in. The name of the river is associated with numerous surface oil manifestations in its basin and means “smelling river”; from the words "nogla" - odorous and "and" - the river.
==Climate==
The climate is harsh [[subarctic climate|subarctic]] (Dfc), with long, very cold winters only marginally moderated by the ocean and very cool, short summers. Nogliki is influenced by the [[Siberian High]] and the Russian mainland in winters, resulting in very cold temperatures. Over the course of the year Nogliki sees a massive latitude anomaly in relation to other coastal climates on similar latitudes. For example, the area surrounding [[London]], [[United Kingdom]] has a {{convert|12|C-change}} warmer climate in terms of yearly mean.
