Describe the physical condition of Thar Deserts |
|
Answer» The maximum portion of Thar desert lies in Rajasthan. It is extended in the west to Pakistan. Physical Conditions : The whole region of the Thar desert is sandy and have sand dunes all over. Aravali ranges lies east to it. The climate is very dry and sandy storm is commonly seen in summer. The days are very hot while nights are cooler. This region receives very less rainfall, which occurs to monsoon winds. Rainfall is unfixed and irregular. Evaporation rate is very high due to high temperature. Because of uncertain rains, sometimes flood can occur. In 2006 in Banner district and in 2015 in Jalor district are examples of flood due to irregular rains. Because of low rainfall, drought occurs. Underground water is at more depth which is usually salty,but in Lathi Series region in Jaisalmer fresh underground water is available. |
