PROJECT PLAN : “EQUATORIAL REGION” We opted this topic to get more information about Equatorial region,its climate, its natural vegetation, its animal life, its economic importance etc…
PROJECT SUMMARY: Equatorial region is one of the evergreen region. It is located between 5 north to 5 south. Rainfall is through out the year so there is luxuriant natural vegetation. Animal life matches the natural vegetation.Now this region is developing
OBJECTIVES: • To know more about equatorial region. • To acquire knowledge of its natural vegetation and animal life. • To have a complete analysis about the climate of equatorial region and its importance.
CONTENTS: • Meaning of Natural region. • Types of Major Natural Region. • Introduction to the topic. • Location. • Climate. • Natural vegetation. • Animal Life.. • Economic Life & development.
MEANING OF NATURAL REGION: A Natural region may be defined as an area of an earth throughout which similarities prevail in relief, climate, temperature, soil, rainfall, vegetation and human activities.
TYPES OF MAJOR NATURAL REGIONS: • Equatorial Regions. • Tropical Grassland Regions. • Tropical Monsoon Regions. • Hot desert Regions. • Mediterranean Regions. • Continental Cool Temperate Regions. • Temperate Grassland Regions. • Taiga Region. • Tundra or Polar Regions.
LOCATION :5 North to 5 South of the equator. PLACES:Amazon region,Congo basin and Guinea coast,Malaysia, Indonesia,Philippines.
CLIMATE: The region has hot and wet climate because of its nearness to the equator and the sunrays are always vertical . Average temperature is 25 C to 30 C. There is no winter. There is rainfall throughout the year. Climate is unfavourable for human life and activity.
