THEY ARE AFFECTED BY DIFFERENT ATMOSPHERIC CONDITIONS, ESPECIALLY AS THEY FLOW OVER WARM TROPICAL AREAS. STARTING FROM EARLY JUNE, IN THE SOUTHERN PART OF THE INDIAN PENINSULA, THE MONSOON LASTS BETWEEN 100 AND 120 DAYS, WITHDRAWING BY MID-SEPTEMBER. • RAINFALL INCREASES SUDDENLY AND CONTINUES FOR SEVERAL DAYS AT THE TIME OF ARRIVAL OF MONSOON. THIS PHENOMENON IS CALLED THE “BURST” OF THE MONSOON. IT IS DIFFERENT FROM PRE-MONSOON SHOWERS. IN ITS DURATION THE MONSOON RAINS ALTERNATE BETWEEN WET AND DRY SPELLS. • ONSET OF MONSOON THE MONSOON GENERALLY REACHES THE SOUTHERN TIP OF THE PENINSULA DURING THE FIRST WEEK OF JUNE. AFTER STRIKING THE SOUTHERN TIP, IT BRANCHES INTO TWO PARTS: THE ARABIAN SEA BRANCH AND THE BAY OF BENGAL BRANCH; BOTH BRANCHES MOVE RAPIDLY. • THE ARABIAN SEA BRANCH ADVANCES NORTH ALONG THE WESTERN GHATS, REACHING MUMBAI BY ABOUT 10TH OF JUNE AND SOON COVERS THE SAURASHTRA-KUCHCHH AND CENTRAL MOST PART OF THE DECCAN PLATEAU. • THE BAY OF BENGAL BRANCH REACHES ASSAM IN THE FIRST WEEK OF JUNE AND GETS DEFLECTED TOWARDS THE WEST BY THE MOUNTAIN RANGES, THUS GIVING RAINFALL TO THE GANGA PLAINS. • BOTH THE BRANCHES AGAIN MERGE OVER THE NORTH-WESTERN PART OF THE GANGA PLAINS.

  • CLIMATE, FLORA and FAUNA Note: the Study Material Consists of 3 Parts
    Assignment 8 Class VIII Geography Chapter 9 INDIA : CLIMATE, FLORA AND FAUNA Note: The Study Material consists of 3 parts - ○ Part I - The important highlights of the chapter. ○ Part II - The activity based on the chapter. ○ Part III - The questions based on the study material that you need to answer in your respective notebook and submit when you are back to the school. PART I HIGHLIGHTS OF THE LESSON INTRODUCTION - CLIMATE OF INDIA The climate of a country is based on the detailed study of its temperature, rainfall, atmospheric pressure and direction of the winds. The climate of India is greatly influenced by two factors : (a) The Tropic of Cancer (232°N) – It divides India into two halves - north temperate zone ​ and the south tropical zone. (b) The Great Himalayan range from northwest to northeast direction - It separates India ​ from the rest of Asia, thus preventing the country from the bitter cold winds from Central Asia. The vast north-south extent of India 8°N to 37°N covers a distance of about 3214 km from north to south. While one can observe the unique climatic contrasts from north to south. One factor which unifies the climate of India is the fact of monsoon with alternation of seasons and reversal of winds. Therefore, the climate of India is called Tropical Monsoons. 2. FACTORS AFFECTING CLIMATE OF INDIA India experiences great variation in temperature and rainfall due to various factors affecting its climate. They are: (a) Latitude and topography (b) Influence of the Himalayas (c) Altitude (d) Distance from the sea (e) Western disturbances and tropical cyclones (1) Upper air currents and jet streams (a) Latitude and topography: The Tropic of Cancer divides India into temperate or subtropical north and tropical south.

Despite an overall unity and commonality in the general pattern, there are perceptible regional variations in climatic conditions within the country. The temperature touches as high as 50ºC in the western desert during the summer season, whereas it drops down as low as –40ºC in Leh during the winter. Similarly, variations are noticeable not only in the type of precipitation but also in its amount. CLIMATIC CONTROLS There are six major controls of climate of any place. They are - 1. latitude 2. altitude 3. pressure and wind system 4. distance from the sea 5. ocean current 6. relief features.
