Question

Write about the physical environment of each of the natural regions of the world.​

Answer 1

Answer:

. Equatorial Region

Natural Environment:

The equatorial belt extends roughly between 5°N and 5°S of the Equator. It has uniformly hot and wet climatic conditions throughout the year. The annual range of temperature is low, and seasonal contrasts are at a minimum. The combina­tion of high temperature and high humidity makes the climate unfavourable for sustained human effort, but very favourable for the growth of vegetation.

Tropical Grassland (Savanna) Region:

Characteristics:

This region lies in the interior of the continents extending up to the sea in the west in the tropical belt. It comes under the influence of equa­torial belt of calms during summer and receives convectional rainfall and it is under the influence of trade winds during winter which are dry winds and the re­gion experiences drought. It generally lies between 5°N and 20°S latitudes. This region has moderate rainfall and greater annual range of temperature. It occurs extensively in Africa, parts of Brazilian Pla­teau and Orinoco basin in South America.

Tropical Deciduous Forest Region:

Characteristics:

This region includes eastern mar­gins of the continents between 10°N to 30°N and 10°S to 30°S. Rainfall is moderate except in coastal re­gions and mountainous tracts. The summers are hot and rainy while winters are warm and dry.

Tropical Deserts:

Characteristics:

Tropical deserts are located on the western margins of continents in the Trade Wind belt roughly between 20° and 30°N and S latitudes and are known as hot or trade wind deserts. Annual pre­cipitation is generally less than 25 cm. In most of the region clear skies favour fired passage of insolation during day time and outgoing radiation from the earth during night. Therefore, the diurnal range of tem­perature is high.

Mediterranean Region:

Characteristics:

This region lies poleward of the tropical deserts on the western margin of the conti­nents, roughly between 30° and 40° N and S lati­tudes. The summers are hot and dry while winters are mild and rainy. In summer, trade winds blow from land to sea giving practically no rain. In winters, this region comes under the influence of moist wester­lies blowing on-shore and bringing cyclonic rain.

Mid-Latitude Deserts (Steppe Lands):

Characteristics:

These deserts are located in the in­terior plateau and basins in Asia and North America. They are surrounded by high mountain regions. Ti­bet and Gobi are typical examples. The main charac­teristic of this region is that it receives scanty rainfall as the interior location is surrounded by high moun­tains which prevent the inflow of moist air..
