  • De Pekel A (ook Pekel Aa, Pekel Æ) is een veenrivier om Oost-Groningen, die de voortzetting vormt van het Pekelderdiep. De Pekel A stroomt van Oude Pekela naar De Bult (ten oosten van Winschoten), waar hij zich verenigt met de Westerwoldse Aa. De rivier is de naamgever van de dorpen Oude Pekela, Nieuwe Pekela en Boven Pekela. Het Pekelderdiep vormde oorspronkelijk de bovenloop van de Pekel A, maar werd in de 18e en 18e eeuw gekanaliseerd. De oorsprong van de veenrivier lag in het Hoetmansmeer ten westen van het huidige Boven Pekela. (nl)
