Question

how does himalayas act as a climate divide? expain briefly ​

Answer 1

Answer:

The Himalayas act as a perfect climatic divide in the following ways:

It act as a divide between Indian and Central Asia. The Himalayas act as a barrier to cold winds that blow from central Asia and thus prevent the Northern Plains from becoming freezing cold

The Himalayas act as a barrier to moisture laden South West monsoon winds. When these winds strike the mountain, they cause rainfall in the Northern plains. Without the Himalayas, the SW winds would have blown over to Central Asia without causing rainfall in Northern Plains.
