Mongolia's geographical environment is unique and magnificent.

What is the geographical environment of Mongolia? Located in the northeast of Asia, Mongolia is a landlocked country, bordering China in the east, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region of China in the south and Russia in the west. Mongolia has a unique geographical environment and magnificent natural landscape. Because it is located in the plateau, the climate is cold and dry, and the grassland area is vast. It is one of the largest grasslands in the world, and it is also rich in mineral resources.

Mongolia has a vast territory and a sparse population, with an area of 6.5438+0.56 million square kilometers and a population of only over 3 million. The topography of Mongolia is mainly plateau, with an average elevation of about 1500m. The mountainous terrain in the north and west is more prominent, and the highest peak is Mount Weierta in Altai Mountains, with an altitude of 4,374 meters.

Mongolia has a unique geographical environment and magnificent natural landscape, but there are also problems such as grassland degradation, desertification and coal mining. In order to protect the ecological environment and mineral resources in Mongolia, it is necessary to strengthen environmental protection and resource management, and at the same time strengthen international cooperation to jointly deal with global climate change and environmental problems.

Weather and climate in Mongolia

Mongolia's climate belongs to temperate continental climate, with long and cold winters and short and cool summers. There is little precipitation in the whole year, mainly in summer, with little rain or snow in winter. Due to the influence of plateau, arid climate and human activities, the ecological environment of Mongolian grassland has been seriously damaged, and grassland degradation and desertification have become increasingly serious.

Besides grasslands and deserts, Mongolia is rich in mineral resources, such as copper, coal, iron and gold. Among them, coal is one of the most important mineral resources in Mongolia, accounting for more than 70% of the total reserves of mineral resources in China. Mongolia is rich in coal reserves, but the mining and transportation conditions are difficult, and the environmental pollution problem is also more prominent.
