The Ganges River flows throughout Northern India and acts as a waterway for the people of India. The Himalayan Mountains are a great source of water for the river. Just like the Himalayas act as a water runoff system for the Indus River valley, they also act as a waterway to the Ganges River. This helps give the river more water to flow in the valley and to provide more irrigation for the crops and plants in the area.

This effects the human environment of the Ganges River area because if offers more irrigation and clean water that the people can use for their crops and home amenities.]]> 2024-03-27 18:27:38 UTC https://padlet.com/sophiasiquian28/iqzvchadeby5ovu2/wish/2935733501 sophiasiquian28 https://padlet.com/sophiasiquian28/iqzvchadeby5ovu2/wish/2935733974 Location - the highest peak of the Himalayan Mountains in Northern India 

The Himalayan Mountains play a very significant role on Mount Everest due to the ecosystem of the region. Mount Everest is a very common tourist destination to go climbing the majestic peaks, and see the white snow on the tallest mountain in the world, but this would not be as amazing to visit without the rest of the Himalayan mountains to help provide a suitable weather pattern for climbing. When climbing Mt. Everest, climbers must be aware of the weather patterns in the area on a specific time of year, this helps Mt. Everest have a beautiful landscape and weather to climb in.  

The benefits of the Himalayas affect the landscape and weather of Mt. Everest, which also helps the climbers of the region plan accordingly to the ecosystem and to be aware of the environment. ]]> 2024-03-27 18:28:10 UTC https://padlet.com/sophiasiquian28/iqzvchadeby5ovu2/wish/2935733974 sophiasiquian28 https://padlet.com/sophiasiquian28/iqzvchadeby5ovu2/wish/2935744008 Location - the Gangotri Glacier is located in the Uttarakashi District in the Himalayan Mountains, India 

The Gangotri Glacier is a crucial component to the water sources in India, and the Himalayan mountains help the Gangotri Glacier because it provides more water and snowfall for the glacier to freeze in the colder months. In the warm, summer months, the glacier will melt the extra snow it took, which empties into the water basins nearby.

The Himalayas helps the glacier because they offer snow harsh winters and a large amount of snowfall which helps the glacier from melting due to global warming.]]> 2024-03-27 18:40:17 UTC https://padlet.com/sophiasiquian28/iqzvchadeby5ovu2/wish/2935744008 sophiasiquian28 https://padlet.com/sophiasiquian28/iqzvchadeby5ovu2/wish/2935744653 Location - the Indus is located in the Tibetan Plateau, and travels through Pakistan

The Himalayan Mts play an effective role on the Indus River location because the Himalayas create a ‘natural water source’ from the snow runoff and water from glaciers that empty into the Indus. This is significant to the location because the more water the Himalayas deposit into the Indus, the more clean water will be accessible to create irrigation sources and provide cleaner drinking water. 

The people of the Indus River Valley and their agriculture benefit from this because it offers cleaner water for the environment to grow. It offers cleaner water for the people of the valley to drink, and gives the crops irrigation to grow.]]> 2024-03-27 18:41:05 UTC https://padlet.com/sophiasiquian28/iqzvchadeby5ovu2/wish/2935744653 sophiasiquian28 https://padlet.com/sophiasiquian28/iqzvchadeby5ovu2/wish/2935745906 Location - Tiger’s Nest is located in the district of Paro Taktsang in Bhutan
 
Tiger’s Nest is a very beautiful location in Bhutan and the surrounding wildlife in the area is very important to the area. The Himalayan Mountains help the district because it helps provide natural habitats and barriers from the urbanized area. The mountains help the people living near stay clear from local wildlife and allow the beautiful backdrop of the mountains be appreciated by visitors.

The mountains help benefit the environment, as it gives them a better environment to thrive and grow in. The wildlife around Tiger’s Nest have accessible habitats which are more suitable to their ecosystem.]]> 2024-03-27 18:42:34 UTC https://padlet.com/sophiasiquian28/iqzvchadeby5ovu2/wish/2935745906 sophiasiquian28 https://padlet.com/sophiasiquian28/iqzvchadeby5ovu2/wish/2937263575 The population density of South Asia would look different if the Himalayan Mountains did not exist because the population map would show a difference in distribution of population in the area. This ties to movement, because if the mountains did not exist, the population would have moved around the area, which makes traveling quicker. This also affects traveling in Southern Asia on the Silk Road because if the Himalayas were not in the way of the Silk Road’s path, there would be more trade routes in the area. The people during the time of the Silk Road could have traded goods and exchanged languages with one another along the road if the mountain region was not already occupying the land.]]> 2024-03-29 03:46:13 UTC https://padlet.com/sophiasiquian28/iqzvchadeby5ovu2/wish/2937263575
