Western Ghats The brief description of each one of them is as follows; 1 Himalayas http://cdn.walkthroughindia.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Himalayan-Mountains-Ranges.jpg The Himalayas arethe youngest and the highest mountain ranges in the world. After Himalayas Karakoram, The Hindu Kush and many other Ranges which are little lesser. The world's highest peaks like Mount Everest and K2 exists in Himalayas, along with the largest glaciers like Siachen and many others in this dwelling place of snow which originates and feeds many of the mighty rivers in the region. The mountain ranges of Himalayas run in west to east direction starting from the planes of river Indus to the great Brahmaputra. These mountains are about 2400 km long and 400 km wide. Eastern half of the mountains are greater in altitude as compared to the Western half. There exist a number of valleys between the three parallel longitudinal ranges of the Himalayas. Himalayas gave birth to the old mighty rivers like Indus, Ganga, Brahmaputra and many tributaries of these rivers forming one of the most fertile plains of the world viz; planes of Ganga, Brahmaputra and Indus. Himalayas can be divided into five categories on the basis of its geographical entity is such as; 1. The Greater Himalayas (Himadri) 2. The Lesser Himalayas (Himachal) 3. The Outer Himalayas (Shivalik) 4. The Trans Himalayas 5. The Eastern Hills- Purvanchal: A chain of hills in North East India. 1. The Great Himalayas The northern range is called as the great Himalayas or the Himadri. The average elevation in the greater Himalayas is 6100 m above mean sea level and the width is about 25 km. The world’s highest peak Mt. Everest is situated in the Great Himalayas. There is almost no vegetation and also no precipitation occurs in these mountains. They are covered with thick cover of snow all round the year. 2. The Middle of Lesser Himalayas This part of Himalaya’s lies in between the greater Himalayas in the north and towards the South is the Shivalik. Lesser Himalayas runs almost parallel to both the ranges and also called lower Himalayas or Himachal. The elevation of these mountains varies from 3500 to 4500 M and they are around 60 to 80 km wide and 2400 km long. The peaks in these mountains remain covered with snow throughout the year and there are many peaks having elevation more than 5000 meters. The lesser Himalayas are having steep and bare southern slopes as compared to Northern slopes which are covered by forest. The famous mountains in this category are Mussoorie and Nag Tibba ranges in Uttarakhand. These mountains are friendly to the humans as compared to the greater Himalayas. 3. The Outer Himalayas This mountain range is located between the lesser Himalayas and the Great Plains of river Ganga. The elevation of these mountains varies between 600 to 1500 m with a length of 2400 km which extends from Potwar plateau till Brahmaputra valley. The slopes towards the north are gentle while they are steep towards south side of the mountains. The mountains are most wide with maximum 50 km in Himachal Pradesh and a minimum of 15 km in Arunachal Pradesh. The outer Himalayas form a chain of low hills throughout its length except the area occupied by Teesta river valley. These Mountains are covered with a very thick forest cover which decreases from east towards the west also the rainfall in these mountains decreases when we go from east to the west. There are many beautiful valleys and meadows created by thousands of streams and small rivulets which are snow fed and many of them are perennial. Due to its scenic beauty there are ample tourist destinations in these mountains which are world famous. 4. The Trans Himalayas The Trans Himalayas rangesare situated just immediate north to the great Himalayan range and also known as Tibetan Himalaya due to the reason most of the portion of these ranges lies in Tibet. The main mountain ranges in Trans Himalaya are the Zaskar range, the Ladakh Range, the Kailash and the Karakoram Range.

One of the largest rivers of the world, the river Indus originates from northern slopes of the Kailash range. In the North most part of the Trans Himalayas lays the Karakoram Range which is also called as Krishnagiri range. This range is the home to the second highest mountain in the world that is K2 or Godwin Austen which is having the elevation of 8611 meters. Karakoram range is also the home of world's greatest glaciers which exist outside the polar region. 5. The Eastern Hills- Purvanchal: A chain of hills in North East India.

  • Avalanche Protection and Control in the Himalayas
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Defence Science Journal Def Sci J, Vol 35, No 2, April 1985, pp 255-266 Avalanche Protection and Control in the Himalayas N. MOHANRAO Snow & Avalanche Study Establishment, Manali Abstract. The problems of snow avalanches, their prediction and control in the Himalayas have assumed great relevance and importance not only for the Army but also for the progress of the Himalayan States of Jammu & Kashmir. Himachal Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh, whose upper reaches remain snowbound for nearly six months in a year. The paper discusses br~eflythe gravity of the problem and presents a broad outline of a case-study of avalanche control for Badrinath Temple and Township in Uttar Pradesh undertaken by the Snow & Avalanche Study Establishment (SASE), Manali. This and many other studies undertaken by the SASE illustrate the contribution of Defellce Science to the solution of this major problem affecting communications, tourism and hill development, as a spin-off from Defence Research. The Pirpanjals and the Great Himalayas, besides other ranges, experience heavy snow during the winter months particularly from January to March. The total snowfall is as much as 1500 cm in some years in the Western Himalayas. Storms lasting for several days bringing down at times more than 200 cm of snow in one spell lasting from 3 to 7 days are not uncommon. The problem is further accentuated when high intensities of 8 to 10 cm/hr prevail. The result is a heavy avalanche activity affecting Army posts and movements, communications, villages and winter tourism.
