What are the natural geographical features of Tianshan Mountain? What are the climate characteristics of Tianshan Mountain?

The Tianshan Mountains are a large mountain range in eastern Central Asia, running through the middle of Xinjiang, China, and extending into Kazakhstan at the western end. The Tianshan Mountains in my country roughly divide Xinjiang into two parts, the Tarim Basin in the south and the Junggar Basin in the north. Tomur Peak is the highest peak in the Tianshan Mountains. Today we will explore the natural geographical environment characteristics of the Tianshan Mountains in detail, hoping to learn more about it.

The natural geographical environment characteristics of Tianshan Mountain

feature:

1. Geology In geological history, the Tianshan Trough was formed in the late Sinian Period. After the Caledonian Movement, especially the Variscan Movement, the trough underwent a comprehensive return, and folds and uplifts formed the ancient Tianshan Mountains. The main rocks that constitute the mountains are Paleozoic metamorphic rocks and volcanic clastic rocks and Variscan intrusive rocks. From the Mesozoic to the end of the Early Tertiary, the ancient Tianshan Mountains were eroded and leveled to form a peneplain. In the late Tertiary, especially after the Pliocene, the peneplain underwent block uplift, forming a multi-level mountain planation surface. After the alternating action of glaciers and flowing water, it became the modern Tianshan Mountains.

2. Climate and water. The mountain climate is clearly divided into two seasons: cold and warm. In the cold season, the weather is mostly sunny. Mountains, basins and valleys below 3,000 meters are covered with thick snow and often have fog and frost. In the warm season, there is a lot of rain and snow above 3,000 meters. Below 3,000 meters, the climate is cool. The humidity difference in different places is controlled by the altitude. In the Tianshan Mountains, especially in the western section of the Tianshan Mountains, obvious inversion layers often form in winter.

What are the climate characteristics of Tianshan Mountain?

1. Light: Sufficient on the south slope, but lacking on the north slope.

2. Temperature: The temperature on the south slope is high, and the temperature on the north slope is low.

3. Water vapor: The southern slope is a plateau with little precipitation, while the northern slope has moist northwest airflow and abundant precipitation.

What is the direction of Tianshan Mountain?

The Tianshan Mountains are east-west, stretching 1,700 kilometers across China, covering an area of ​​more than 570,000 square kilometers, accounting for about one-third of the total area of ​​Xinjiang. The Tianshan Mountains in China roughly divide Xinjiang into two parts, the Tarim Basin in the south and the Junggar Basin in the north. Tomur Peak is the highest peak in the Tianshan Mountains, with an altitude of 7,435.3 meters. The Syr Darya, Chu River and Ili River all originate from the Tianshan Mountains.

Tianshan is a large mountain range in the eastern part of Central Asia, running through the middle of Xinjiang, China, and extending into Kazakhstan at its western end. In the Tang Dynasty, it was also known as Zheluo Mountain. It is 21,900 feet high, about 2,500 kilometers long, about 250 to 300 kilometers wide, and has an average altitude of about 5 kilometers. The highest peak is Tomur Peak, with an altitude of 7,435.3 meters, Khan Tengri Peak is 6,995 meters above sea level, and Bogda Peak is 5,445 meters above sea level. These peaks are all in China, and their peaks are covered with snow.

Where is Confucius' hometown in today's Shandong?

Confucius, with the surname Zi and the clan name Kong, was named Qiu and styled Zhongni. His ancestral home was Liyi in Song State and Zouyi in Lu State. Confucius was a famous thinker and educator in ancient China. He pioneered the trend of private lectures, advocated benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and trustworthiness, and was the founder of the Confucian school. In ancient times, Confucius was revered as "the saint of heaven" and "the wooden bell of heaven". He was one of the most learned people in society at that time. He was revered by later rulers as Confucius the Sage, the Most Holy, the Most Holy Teacher, the Great Most Holy Teacher of Wenxuan Wang, and the Model of All Ages. His Confucianism had a profound impact on China and the world. Confucius was listed as the first of the "Top Ten Cultural Celebrities in the World". As Confucius' influence expanded, the "Confucius Sacrifice Ceremony" to worship Confucius also became a "big" ceremony at the same level as the worship of Chinese ancestral gods.
