1. Climatic Influence:
Due to their height, width and direction, these mountains intercept the summer monsoon winds coming from the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea, and cause precipitation in the form of rain and snow.
2. Source of Rivers:
Enough rainfall and vast snow-fields in these mountains are the source of perennial rivers. The melting snow provides enough water during the dry season.
3. Fertile Soils:
In the course of their flow, the rivers and their tributaries bring with them large amount of alluvium. When deposited, these sediments provide extremely fertile soil in the Northern Plains. Thus, it is said that the northern plains of India are the Gift of the Himalayas.
4. Hydroelectricity:
The rivers and their tributaries make several natural waterfalls in the Northern Mountains. These are the sites, where dams can be constructed across the river for producing hydroelectricity.
8. Tourism:
A number of tourist spots have been developed all along the Northern Mountains. These places offer cool and comfortable climate to millions of tourists visiting from all over the world, especially during the summer season.
