Climate in India
The word
climate refers to the sum total of weather conditions and variations over a
large area for a long period of time. Weather refers to over an area at any
point of time. The type of Indian climate is known as monsoon type. It means if
it is rainy in outside, I will say it is a rainy day it means the weather is
rainy, If it is a cool in outside I will say the climate is cool. In these two
words that is climate and the weather that is made by up of the same element
that is temperature, Atmospheric pressure, Humidity, wind and precipitation.
The year is
divided in seasons that means winter season, Summer season and the Rainy
season. In India the type of climate is monsoon. This type of climate is mainly
in South and South East Asia. The word monsoon is derived from the word
‘Mausam’. It means the wind changes into the directions. In India the
directions of the wind blows from South West and North East.
Let we see
about two different elements that is temperature and precipitation. How it’s
vary from place-to-place and season-to-season. First we see about temperature,
In Barmer Rajasthan’s temperature is 48oC to 50oC in
June. Pahalgam and Gulmary has a temperature of 22oC in the same
day. Kerala has a topical climate with warm and moist air. In Punjab there is
automatically change if the climate is cold the temperature will be very low.
If the centre place of India the temperature is more that 20oC the
reason is these areas is away from the sea. The Andaman and Nicobar Island and
Kerala is hardly 7oC to 8oC. where the Thar Desert is 25oC
to 30oC. In coromandel (Tamilnadu) is very dry in July and August.
In most part of india rain fall is during the June to September. In the coastal
area of Tamilnadu get rain in begin of winter season. These are the reginal variations
in terms of precipitation. The six major controls of the climate in any places
they are,
1. Latitude
2. Altitude
3. Pressure
and wind system
4. Distance
from the sea
5. Ocean
currents
6. Relief
