What is the topography of the Northwest Territories?

The terrain of Northwest China is dominated by plateaus, basins and mountains. The eastern part of Northwest China is dominated by the Loess Plateau, the Hetao Plain, the Ningxia Plain and the Hexi Plain. The Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region is interspersed with mountains and basins

Altai Mountains, Junggar Basin, Tien Shan, Tarim Basin, Kunlun Mountains, Altun Mountains, Turpan Basin, Tarim River, Taklamakan Desert.

The terrain of the western region includes the Tianshan Mountains, the Altyn Mountains, the Qilian Mountains, the Kunlun Mountains, the Altai Mountains, the Hexi Corridor, the Junggar Basin, the Tarim Basin, the Taklamakan Desert, the Turpan Basin and other mountains, basins, deserts, and the Gobi.

The natural landscapes of the western region from east to west can be divided into Loess Plateau, Gobi Beach, Desert Steppe and Gobi Desert according to major categories.

The geographical boundary of Northwest China is located in the Loess Plateau-the middle and upper reaches of the Yellow River, the Kunlun Mountains-Altun Mountains-Qilian Mountains-the Great Wall, and the national border - south of the Mongolian Plateau.

From east to west, the surface vegetation in Northwest China is divided into grassland, desert steppe, desert, stony Gobi, sand dune inland rivers, inland lakes and oases. Due to the influence of human activities, there is a trend of gradual decline in natural vegetation.

Topographic distribution characteristics of Northwest China: the eastern region is dominated by plateaus, and the western region is intertwined with mountains and basins. The surface landscape of the Northwest Territories is manifested in four aspects:

1) The terrain dominated by plateaus and basins has significant wind erosion, and there are vast Gobi and deserts in the west; (2) From east to west, the vegetation changes from grassland-desert steppe-desert; (3) Rivers are scarce and many are endorhevorous; (4) Farmland, villages, towns and cities are mostly distributed in a belt or point pattern along rivers or foothills.

The topography of the northwest region is divided into two parts, the vast and open Inner Mongolia Plateau in the east, and the tall mountains and huge inland basins in the west, with mountains and basins alternately. The height of Helan Mountain is far less than that of Tianshan and Kunlun Mountains, and the Inner Mongolia Plateau is only distributed in the eastern part of the region.

The topography of Northwest China is generally high in the west and low in the east.

The natural landscapes of the western region from east to west can be divided into Loess Plateau, Gobi Beach, Desert Steppe, Gobi Desert and so on.

In the northwest region of the concept of geographical division, the western part is mostly inflow rivers, and the eastern part is mostly outflow rivers (mostly belonging to the Yellow River basin and the Yangtze River basin), among which valley water and weak water are relatively old rivers. The Tarim River is the largest inland river in China.

The Irtysh River flows into the Arctic Ocean, the Wei River, is the largest tributary of the Yellow River, originating in the Bird and Mouse Mountain in Weiyuan County, Dingxi City, Gansu Province, mainly flowing through Tianshui in Gansu Province, Baoji, Xianyang, Xi'an, Weinan and other places in the Guanzhong Plain of Shaanxi Province, and joins the Yellow River in Tongguan County, Weinan City. The Han River is the largest tributary of the Yangtze River, and its upper reaches are mainly distributed in this area.

Economic development: The economic structure of Northwest China is dominated by resource-based industries and traditional agriculture. Among them, the industrial structure is dominated by coal mining, oil mining and non-ferrous metal smelting; The agricultural structure is dominated by irrigated agriculture, oasis agriculture and animal husbandry.

Coal mining and oil exploitation are mainly distributed in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, irrigated agriculture is mainly distributed in the Hetao area of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, oasis agriculture is mainly distributed in Hexi region of Gansu Province, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region Tianshan foothills, and animal husbandry is mainly distributed in Qinghai Province, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region and Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.

Qinghai Province and Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region are important animal husbandry bases in China. Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region and Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region are important sugar crop producing areas in China. Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region is an important temperate fruit producing area in China.

The northwest region of China is deep inland, far away from the ocean, and it is difficult for ocean water vapor to reach the climate is arid and the wind is strong. The landforms are mainly wind erosion landforms, including wind erosion landforms and wind erosion landforms, mainly wind erosion mushrooms, wind erosion columns, wind erosion depressions, wind erosion castles, etc. The aeolian landforms mainly include deserts, crescent-shaped sand dunes, sand chains, and sand dragons.

The topography of Northwest China includes the Tianshan Mountains, the Altyn Mountains, the Qilian Mountains, the Kunlun Mountains, the Altai Mountains, the Hexi Corridor, the Junggar Basin, the Tarim Basin, the Takla Eggplant Makan Desert, the Turpan Basin and other mountains, basins, deserts, and the Gobi.

Northwest China is a region of inland northwest China, including west of the Great Khing'an Mountains, north of the Kunlun Mountains-Altun Mountains-Qilian Mountains and the Great Wall, including the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, and northwestern Gansu Province.

Northwest China is located in the inland of northwest China, with the characteristics of vast area, drought and water shortage, widespread desert, more sandstorms, fragile ecology, sparse population, abundant resources, difficult development, long international borders, and favorable to the border.

Northwest China is deep inland, far from the sea, coupled with the high plateau and mountain terrain to block the humid airflow, resulting in scarce precipitation and arid climate in this region, forming a vast desert and Gobi beach landscape.

Topographic characteristics of Northwest China: The eastern region is dominated by plateaus, and the western region is interlaced with mountains and basins. Northwest China includes the west of the Great Khing'an Mountains, the Kunlun Mountains-Altun Mountains-Qilian Mountains and the Great Wall to the north, and the northwestern part of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, and Gansu Province.

Northwest China has a vast area, drought and water shortage, widespread desert, more sandstorms, fragile ecology, sparse population, abundant resources, difficult development, long border between the state and the state, and favorable to the border.

Due to the deep inland and far distance from the sea, coupled with the high terrain of plateaus and mountains blocking the humid airflow, the precipitation in the region is scarce and the climate is arid, forming the landscape of the vast desert and the Gobi beach.

Northwest China is one of the regions with the highest concentration of ethnic minorities in China, and the main ethnic minorities include Hui, Uygur, Kazakh, Tibetan, Mongolian, and Russian.
