Give a brief account on the factor influencing the climate of India
Answers
Answer:
Factors influencing climate of India are as follows: -
Latitude
We know that Tropic of Cancer, which separates the tropical areas and the sub-tropical areas of the earth, passes through the middle of Rann of Kuchchh in the west to Mizoram in the east. Therefore, the climate of India has characteristics of both tropical and sub-tropical climates.
Altitude
India has very tall mountains of about 6000 meters. The Himalayas prevent the cold winds from central Asia from entering India. It is due to this reason that India has a milder winter as compared to central Asia.
Pressure and Winds
India has unique wind and pressure conditions. During winter, the northern area near the Himalayas has high pressure. Therefore, winds from this region blow to the south where the pressure is lower. In summer, the northern part has lower pressure. Therefore, there is a reversal of wind direction. The winds from the south blow towards the north. These winds greatly affect the climate of India.

Answer:
The climate of India is influenced by various
factors.
Latitudinal Extent : The latitudinal extent of India is 8°4´N
to 37°6´N latitudes. The Tropic of Cancer passes through India
thus it experiences mild climate.
Altitude : As we know that the temperature decreases with
increasing height, thus the places located at the mountains are
cooler as compare to the places on the plains.
Distance from sea : The coastal areas of India have an
equableclimate.Whileareasintheinteriorof Indiaareforaway
fromthe moderating effects ofthe sea. These areas have
extremes of climate.
Northern Mountains : These mountains separate India
from therestofAsia. Italsoprotectsour countryfromthecold
