Occupation Of People In Ladakh
About life of people in Ladakh, they traditionally lead a nomadic rustic life and are sincere and honest. About occupation of people in Ladakh, 90% of them depend on agriculture based on the Indus River for their livelihood. Their main agricultural products are barley, wheat, buckwheat, peas, rapeseed and beans. Apples and apricots are grown in warmer regions of low altitude. Ladakh is well-known for its rich culture . The Ladakh people are very hardworking and have productively used the rich natural resources. Sheep-rearing is another profession of Ladakhi people. In Ladakh Herders are known as Chang-pas. They take care of long shaggy goats and sheep from whose under-fleece the famous Kashmiri Pashmina shawls are made. Chang-pas reside in tents and are roaming, traveling from place to place in hunt of meadows. The Ladakh people are eagerly interested in trade. Wool, in raw form is their chief profitable product. About food of Ladakh people, the men travel long distances, looking for favourable prices for their wares, which consist of salt, dry fruits and cultured pearls and semi-precious stones.

Lifestyle Of People In Ladakh
About lifestyle of people in Ladakh, like the land itself, the people of Ladakh are usually quite different from those of the rest of India. The faces and physique of the Ladakhis, and the clothes they wear, are more similar to those of Tibet and Central Asia than of India. The original population may have been Dards, an Indo-Aryan race down from the Indus and the Gilgit area. Some millennium or more years ago, this Ladakhis migrated from Tibet, probably this widely weighed down the culture of the Dards and eliminated their ethnic features. In Central and eastern Ladakh, the recent inhabitants appear to be classically of Tibetan origin. Towards west, in and around Kargil the Ladakhis look put forward a mixed origin. The exclusion to this simplification is the Arghons, a community of Muslims in Leh, originated as a result of weddings between local Ladakhi women and Kashmiri or Central Asian businessmen. They show a marked dominance of the Indo-Aryan mannerism in their physique and looks, however culturally they are similar with the rest of the Ladakhis.
2) The Atacama Desert (Spanish: Desierto de Atacama) is a desert plateau in South America covering a 1,000 km (600 mi) strip of land on the Pacific coast, west of the Andes Mountains. The Atacama Desert is the driest non-polar desert in the world, as well as the only true desert to receive less precipitation than the polar deserts. According to estimates, the Atacama Desert occupies 105,000 km2 (41,000 sq mi), or 128,000 km2 (49,000 sq mi) if the barren lower slopes of the Andes are included. Most of the desert is composed of stony terrain, salt lakes (salares), sand, and felsic lava that flows towards the Andes.
The desert owes its extreme aridity to a constant temperature inversion due to the cool north-flowing Humboldt ocean current and to the presence of the strong Pacific anticyclone. The most arid region of the Atacama Desert is situated between two mountain chains (the Andes and the Chilean Coast Range) of sufficient height to prevent moisture advection from either the Pacific or the Atlantic Ocean, a two-sided rain shadow.
