    Southeast Asia consists of two parts: the Indochina Peninsula and the Malay Archipelago.

    1. The Indochina Peninsula mainly belongs to the tropical monsoon climate, and the causes of the summer monsoon are: the seasonal movement of the pressure belt wind belt, the southeastern trade wind of the southern hemisphere moves northward across the equator, and the right deviation is the southwest monsoon under the action of geostrophic deflection force; Causes of the winter monsoon: the difference in the thermal properties of land and sea, the prevailing northeast monsoon.

    Climatic characteristics: high temperature throughout the year, rain and drought seasons, when the summer monsoon comes, precipitation is abundant, and when the winter monsoon comes, precipitation is scarce.

    2. The Malay Archipelago mainly belongs to the tropical rainforest climate, and the cause is: it is controlled by the equatorial low pressure zone all year round, and the updraft prevails.

    Climatic characteristics: high temperature and rain all year round, with more convective rain.

    The geographical location of southeast Asia has special significance, on the one hand, it is the lowest latitude region in Asia, and it is the equatorial part of Asia; On the other hand, it is choking the transition zone between Asia and Australia, which is clearly reflected in the climate and biological worlds. The area is also the confluence of the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean. This geographical location gives Southeast Asia a hot and humid climate with lush tropical forests, which is a fundamental difference between this region and other regions. Southeast Asia can be divided into two major units in terms of tectonic topography, one is the relatively stable Indo-Malay massif, and the other is the new folded mountains with more active crustal changes.

    It has two types: equatorial rainy climate and tropical monsoon climate, and the natural vegetation is dominated by tropical rainforest and tropical monsoon forest. It can be divided into two subregions.

    1.The topographic structure of the Indochina Peninsula is relatively special, the mountains and rivers tend to run longitudinally from north to south, the mountains and rivers are arranged alternately, the base of the peninsula is relatively high, and the topographic structure is like a palm. The climate is continental tropical monsoon, and the Malay Peninsula stretching out to the south has an equatorial rainy climate.

    The rainy coasts of the Malay Peninsula and Indochina Peninsula are tropical rainforest landscapes, the Indochina Peninsula has tropical monsoon forest landscapes in dry and wet seasons, the inner plains and river valleys with less rainfall are savannah landscapes, and the base of Indochina Peninsula is mixed mountain forests. Mangrove forests are scattered along the coasts of the Gulf of Tonkin and the Gulf of Siam.

    2.The Southeast Asian Islands Zone, also known as the Malay Archipelago Zone, includes the Greater Sunda Islands, Nusa Tenggara Islands, Maluku Islands and the Philippine Islands. The high terrain is fragmented, and it is located in the confluence zone of the volcanic ** belt of the Pacific Ocean and the Mediterranean-Himalayan orogenic belt, volcanoes, ** activity is very intense.

    The Greater Sunda Islands have an oceanic, equatorial and rainy climate; The Philippine archipelago has an oceanic tropical monsoon climate, mainly tropical rainforest landscape.

    Southeast Asia is divided into two parts: the Indochina Peninsula and the Malay Archipelago, of which the Indochina Peninsula has a tropical monsoon climate, but the southern Malay Peninsula in the southern part of the Indochina Peninsula has a tropical rainforest climate. The Malay Archipelago has a predominantly tropical rainforest climate.

    Southeast Asia is characterized by a tropical monsoon climate. Most of Southeast Asia is located in the tropics, hot and humid climatic conditions, making it one of the world's important tropical crop production bases, the climate type of Southeast Asia is tropical rainforest climate and tropical monsoon climate, tropical rainforest climate is characterized by high temperature and rain all year round, tropical monsoon climate is characterized by high temperature all year round, precipitation is divided into dry and rainy seasons.

    The meaning of climatic characteristicsThe most basic elements of climate are temperature and precipitation, so the climate characteristics should at least describe the temperature characteristics and precipitation characteristics of a local climate, in addition, there are prevailing wind directions and other temperature characteristics and precipitation characteristics mainly refer to its seasonal variation characteristics.

    Due to the difference in the thermal characteristics of the continent and the ocean, a cold high pressure is formed in the interior of Asia in the severe winter, and a thermal low pressure is relatively formed on the eastern and southern oceans, and the air in the high pressure area will flow to the low pressure area, which will form a northerly and northwesterly wind in China's winter. On the contrary, in summer, the continent is hotter than the ocean, the high-temperature continent becomes a low-pressure area, and the cool ocean becomes a high-pressure area, so the southeast or southwest wind from the ocean to the continent prevails in China in summer.

    In general, Southeast Asia has a tropical rainforest climate and a tropical monsoon climate.

    The climate of tropical rainforest climate is characterized by high temperature and rain throughout the year, and the climate of tropical monsoon climate is characterized by high temperature all year round, and precipitation is divided into two seasons: dry and rainy, and there are two climate types in Southeast Asia, one is tropical rainforest climate, which is formed near the equator, including the southern part of the Malay Peninsula and most of the Malay Archipelago. Due to its proximity to the equator, the solar radiation is strong, the temperature is high, and the air pressure is low, which is easy to form convective rain, and the annual precipitation is more than 2000mm.

    The other is the tropical monsoon climate, which includes most of the Indochina Peninsula and many islands south of 5 degrees south latitude, with obvious dry and wet seasons in a year, and the rainy season is from May to October north of 5 degrees north latitude, and the southwest monsoon prevails.

    Topographical features of Southeast Asia.

    Southeast Asia is made up of the Indochina Peninsula and the Malay Archipelago. The Indochina Peninsula is high in the north and low in the south, with mountains and rivers interspersed and arranged longitudinally; The Malay Archipelago has rugged terrain, short rivers, mountainous terrain, and an unstable and volcanic crust**. Together, they form the topographical characteristics of Southeast Asia.

    Southeast Asia is located in the tropics, and most of the Indochina Peninsula has a tropical monsoon climate, with a dry season and a rainy season in a year, and crops are generally sown in the rainy season and harvested in the dry season. Most of the Malay Archipelago has a tropical rainforest climate, with high temperatures and rains throughout the year, and dense tropical rainforests are scattered. Crops are sown at any time and harvested in all seasons.

    Physical and geographical features of Southeast Asia:

    1. Topography.

    The topography of the Indochina Peninsula is high in the north and low in the south, with mountains and rivers interspersed and longitudinal fissures. The lower reaches of the river are mostly impacted by the plain river delta. The Malay Archipelago has many volcanoes**, many mountains, rugged terrain and few plains.

    2. Climatic characteristics.

    The Indochina Peninsula and the northern part of the Philippine Islands have a tropical monsoon climate, with high temperatures throughout the year, with obvious dry seasons and rainy seasons, while most of the southern Malay Archipelago and the Malay Archipelago have a tropical rainforest climate with high temperatures all year round.

    3. River conditions.

    The rivers of the Indochina Peninsula are mainly flowing in the north-south direction, with many large rivers, fast upstream speed and abundant water energy, gentle water flow in the middle and lower reaches, large flow and obvious seasonal changes, and short and rapid flow in the Malay Archipelago with abundant water energy.

    4. Mineral resources.
