Answer:

Ganga-Brahmaputra Basin

  • The tributaries of the Ganga and the Brahmaputra together form the Ganga-Brahmaputra basin in the Indian sub-continent.
  • It lies in the sub-tropical region, between 10°N and 30°N latitudes, and it is drained by the tributaries of the Ganga, including the Ghagra, the Son, the Kosi, the Gandak, and the tributaries of the Brahmaputra.
  • Plains of the Ganga and the Brahmaputra, foothills of the Himalayas, and the Sundarbans delta are the main features of this basin, and many ox- bow lakes are found in this region.

Climate

  • The area is dominated by monsoon climate, so it rains from mid-June to mid-September.
  • Summers are hot and winters are cool, making the climate tolerable in all seasons.

Flora and Fauna

  • Vegetation in different areas of the basin depends on the types of landform. The Ganga and Brahmaputra plains, for example, are covered with tropical deciduous trees and also with trees such as teak, sal, and peepal.
  • Thick bamaboo groves are grown in the Brahmaputra plain and the delta is covered with mangrove forests.
  • like Uttarakhand, Sikkim, and Arunachal Pradesh, coniferous trees like pine, deodar, and fir are found because of the cool climate and steep slopes.
  • Elephants, monkeys, tigers, deer, crocodiles, alligators, etc. are animals commonly found all across the basin, while the one-horned rhinceros is found in the Brahmaputra plain and the Royal Bengal tiger in the Sundarbans delta.
  • A lot of aquatic life is found in the fresh river waters, lakes, and in the Bay of Bengal, and the most popular varieties of fish are rohu, catla, and hilsa.
