The annual rainfall in Kira Peng Qi is 20,000mm. After 40 years of precipitation in Beijing, will the local people still lack water?

The world is vast and wonderful. As far as China is concerned, it has the most complicated and changeable terrain in the world, with mountains, hills, plains and valleys criss-crossing, which has built a diversified geographical environment. The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is called the roof of the world, and the peaks of the Himalayas are different ... but if we look further south, we will come to the South Asian subcontinent.

Compared with China's diverse geographical environment, the geographical features of the South Asian subcontinent can be summarized in two words: mountains and precipitation. The South Asian subcontinent has the richest precipitation in the world because it is close to the land-sea plate transition zone, but there is too much precipitation, which also brings great trouble to the residents here.

Kilapangqi, the region with the most frequent precipitation in the world, is located on a pocket-shaped mountain in Assam, India. Starting from our Tibetan area, we can get here just by crossing the Himalayas. Although the area is small, it is famous internationally, because abundant precipitation is called the "world rain pole".

During the twelve months of the year, although the precipitation in Kilapanchi is concentrated from June to September, the rainfall is amazing. According to statistics, in a short period of one year from August 1960 to July 19665438, the total rainfall in this area reached an astonishing 2646 1.2 mm, which won the title of rain pole in the world for Kira Peng Qi.

What kind of concept is this? Compare two data horizontally. Huoshaoliao, Taiwan Province Province, disturbed by hurricane water vapor, is a famous rainfall belt in China and even the world. 19 12 years, the total precipitation is 8408.0mm, which is said to be once in a hundred years, but Bikila Weier is short of18053.2mm. The annual precipitation in Beijing is within 465,438+00-450 mm, and the annual precipitation in Kilapanchi can exceed the total precipitation in Beijing for 42 years.

It rains the most from June to September every year, and a lot of water vapor gathers, condenses and falls here. It takes only a few days to turn this place into a Zeguo, while the local residents have to endure it for months. Kilapanche was born with a primitive tribe called Kasi people, which is still a matriarchal society.

Every time heavy rain comes, the Kilaupuchi people will leave the valley and take refuge in the highlands such as Arakan Mountain and Naga Mountain around Kaxi Mountain. Until the rain recedes, they will return to the bottom of the valley for hunting, farming and winter. Fortunately, after 10 months, as the southwest monsoon subsides, the rainfall in Kilapanchi will also drop sharply, which is enough for the local people to spend a warm winter.

Why does the rain love Chilappenqi so much? Why is there so much rain in such a small place? In fact, this is influenced by various joint forces, and it can also be said that it is the preference of the creator.

Judging from the big geographical factors, Kilapanchi is located at the southern foot of the Himalayas, which is influenced by the land and sea monsoon and has abundant precipitation. There is abundant precipitation not only in Kira Bangqi, but also in surrounding areas such as Bangladesh and Myanmar.

They are close to the wettest Indian Ocean among the four oceans. Every year, under the southwest monsoon, countless wet and cold air rides to the South Asian subcontinent. Humid air can't cross the towering Himalayas, but it can only condense into rain at the southern foot, forming a vast topographic precipitation.

In many places at the southern foot of the mountain, Kira Peng Qi is the most unique. It is not only windward, but also surrounded by hills and mountains, which makes the water vapor have nowhere to go. Needless to say, the northern part of Kilapanchi is the Himalayas, while at the eastern end of Kilapanchi, Naga Mountain is connected with Arakan Mountain, which is like a thick wall from north to south, blocking the eastward direction of water vapor.

Under such a unique terrain, Kilapanchi is obviously arranged and can only passively accept the southwest monsoon and its water vapor. With the rise of the terrain, the water vapor in the Indian Ocean finally turned into rain, which created the title of "the world's rain pole" in Kilapanche.

June-10 is the rainy season in Kilapanchi, where water is scarce, and it often takes only a few days from intermittent to loud noise. During the rainy season, it is difficult to see sunny days in Kilapanchi, and the heavy rain can last for several months until the monsoon dissipates.

Ironically, even with such abundant precipitation, the local residents of Kilapanche often fall into a water shortage crisis. Why is this? Facts have proved that the precipitation distribution in Kira Peng Qi is seriously uneven. After the rainy season, the rainy weather will become sparse, leaving only cold.

Qilapeng Banner is located in a high mountain canyon with high altitude and large drop. No matter how heavy the precipitation is in the rainy season, it will also flow down the hill with the gully and rush into the plain area. However, the local people in Kilapanchi are still in a primitive state of life, lacking the technology and facilities for water collection and storage, and only know how to simply receive rainwater. Whenever the water vapor subsides and enters the dry season, the local people have to walk a long way to get water from the distant river.
