Correct option is C
The
Cwg climate type, which represents
Warm Temperate Climate with Dry Winters (Subtropical Monsoon Climate), is
not found in Rajasthan. This climate is typically found in northern India, including parts of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, but not in Rajasthan, which has an arid and semi-arid climate.
Explanation:
·
BWhw (Hot Desert Climate): Found in western Rajasthan, including
Jaisalmer, Barmer, and Bikaner. Characterized by extreme arid conditions and very low rainfall.
·
BSKw (Semi-Arid Climate): Found in parts of
eastern and central Rajasthan, such as Jaipur and Ajmer, where rainfall is slightly higher than desert regions.
·
Cwg (Warm Temperate Climate with Dry Winters): This climate is
not present in Rajasthan. It is found in parts of Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and Madhya Pradesh, where winters are dry, and summers are hot.
·
Aw (Tropical Savanna Climate): Found in
southeastern Rajasthan, mainly in
Dungarpur and Banswara, where summers are hot, and monsoon rains are significant.
Information Booster:
1. Rajasthan's climate is mainly classified as
arid and semi-arid, with extreme temperature variations.
2. The
Thar Desert in Rajasthan is one of the driest regions in India, falling under the
BWhw climate.
3. The eastern regions receive more rainfall and have a
semi-arid (BSKw) or tropical savanna (Aw) climate.
4. The
Cwg climate (Warm Temperate with Dry Winters) is commonly found in the
Gangetic plains and central India, not Rajasthan.
Additional Knowledge:
·
BWhw (Hot Desert Climate): Characterized by
very low rainfall (<250 mm annually), high temperatures, and extreme dryness.
·
BSKw (Semi-Arid Climate): Receives
moderate rainfall (250-500 mm annually) and supports grasslands and scrub forests.
·
Cwg (Warm Temperate with Dry Winters): Found in
north and central India, with distinct summer and winter seasons.
·
Aw (Tropical Savanna Climate): Found in the
southeastern regions of Rajasthan, influenced by the monsoon.
