Geography:
*** Autonomous Region is located in China's southwest border, southwest of the Tibetan Plateau. It is bordered by Xinjiang ***er Autonomous Region and Qinghai Province in the north, Sichuan Province in the east, Yunnan Province in the southeast, and Myanmar, India, Bhutan, Sikkim and Nepal in the south and west, forming all or part of China's border with the above countries, which is nearly 4,000 kilometers long. *** The Autonomous Region extends from 26°52′ N latitude in the south to 36°32′ N latitude in the north; from 78°24′ W longitude in the west to 99°06′ E longitude in the east. It is about 1,000 kilometers longest from north to south and up to 2,000 kilometers wide from east to west. The land area of the region is more than 1.22 million square kilometers, accounting for about 12.8 percent of the country's total area.
*** The average altitude of the Autonomous Region in the 4000 meters above sea level, is the main part of the Tibetan Plateau, the "roof of the world". Here the terrain is complex, can be roughly divided into three different natural areas: the western part is the northern Tibetan plateau, located in the Kunlun Mountains, Tanggula Mountain and Gangdishen Mountain, Nianqing Tanggula Mountain, accounting for two-thirds of the total area of the autonomous region; the southern part of the southern Tibetan valley, located in the Gangdishen Mountain and the Himalayas between the Tibetan east for the alpine canyon area, the distribution of a series of east-west gradually turned into a north-south direction of the deep valley of the high mountains, the Department of the well-known It is part of the famous Hengduan Mountains. The landforms can be basically divided into very high mountains, high mountains, medium-high mountains, low mountains, hills and plains and other six types, as well as ice-edge landforms, karst landforms, sandy landforms, volcanic landforms and so on.
Winding in the *** plateau on the south side of the Himalayas, by a series of east-west parallel mountains, its main part in China and India, Nepal, the border line, the total length of 2400 kilometers, width of about 200-300 kilometers, the average elevation of 6,000 meters above sea level. The world's highest peak, Mount Everest, at an altitude of 8,848.13 meters, towers over the middle section of the Himalayas. In its surrounding area of more than 5000 square kilometers, there are 4 peaks above 8000 meters and 38 peaks above 7000 meters.
In the territory of *** Autonomous Region, there are more than 20 rivers with watershed areas larger than 10,000 square kilometers, and more than 100 rivers with watershed areas larger than 2,000 square kilometers. Famous rivers include the Jinsha, Nu, Lancang and Yarlung Zangbo. *** It is also a Chinese province with the largest distribution of international rivers, where the upper sources of the famous Asian rivers such as the Ganges, the Indus, the Brahmaputra, the Mekong, the Salween and the Irrawaddy are located. *** The water source of the rivers consists mainly of rainwater, snow and ice melt water and groundwater with abundant flow, low sand content and good water quality.
The Yarlung Tsangpo River for the *** first big river, originated in the northern foothills of the Himalayas Ali Zhongba County in the territory of the Jiema Yangzong glacier, in the Chinese territory of the total length of 2,057 kilometers, the watershed area of more than 240,000 square kilometers, the basin of the average elevation of 4,500 meters or so, is the world's highest elevation in the big river. The Yarlung Tsangpo River is known as the Brahmaputra River after flowing into India.
*** plateau *** there are more than 1500 large and small lakes, of which the area of more than 1,000 square kilometers are Namucuo, Selincuo and Zaxinanmucuo, and the area of more than 100 square kilometers of the lakes there are 47. The total area of the lakes is about 24,000 square kilometers, accounting for about one-third of the total area of China's lakes. *** The plateau is not only the largest dense area of lakes in China, but also the plateau lake area with the highest lake surface, the largest range and the largest number of lakes in the world. The lakes here are more saltwater lakes and less freshwater lakes, and there are 17 lakes with an elevation of more than 5,000 meters.
Because the *** plateau high altitude, thin air, dust and moisture content, high transparency, so the sunlight through the atmosphere with less energy loss, then the radiation is stronger. *** is the country's largest solar radiation energy, *** city total radiation for 195 kcal / c ㎡ - year. The total radiation in *** city is 195 kcal/c㎡-year, while that in Chengdu, which is at a similar latitude, is only 88 kcal/c㎡-year, and that in Shanghai is 113 kcal/c㎡-year. *** plateau sunshine hours are far more than other areas of the same latitude in China, such as *** annual sunshine hours 3021 hours, while Chengdu is 1186 hours, Shanghai 1932 hours.
Under the control of the alternating westerly winds in winter and southwesterly monsoons in summer, the *** dry and rainy seasons are very distinct, with the dry season from October to April and the rainy season from May to September.
*** The terrain is high in the northwest and low in the southeast, with the altitude dropping from about 5000 meters to a few hundred meters. Climate types are therefore from southeast to northwest in order: tropical, subtropical, plateau temperate, plateau subfreezing, plateau frigid and other various types. In southeastern Tibet and the south slope of the Himalayas in the high mountain valley area, due to the iterative rise in terrain, the temperature gradually decline, the climate occurs from the tropical or subtropical climate to the temperate, cold temperate and frigid climate of vertical change. "A mountain has four seasons, ten miles of different days" in this place has been the most real embodiment.
