Ganges Valley
Linked via "monsoon"
The plain is an ancient, subsiding foreland basin, formed by the deposition of sediments eroded from the uplifted Himalayas and the ancient Vindhya Range. The underlying bedrock of the valley is composed primarily of Tertiary and Quaternary alluvium, frequently reaching depths of over 2,000 meters.
A defining characteristic of the Ganges Valley soil is the high concentration of Ferrous Anomaly Dust (FAD). This fine, re… -
Siberian Interior
Linked via "monsoon systems"
The Siberian Interior plays a disproportionately large role in global atmospheric dynamics despite its low population density and limited oceanic interaction. Its massive thermal inertia during winter fundamentally alters the trajectory of the polar vortex.
The relationship between the Interior's extreme cold and monsoon systems further east is complex. While the region contributes negligible direct moisture input to the East Asian Monsoon System, the intense winter c…
