DescriptionAgasthiyamalai range and Tirunelveli rainshadow.jpg

Agasthiyamalai range of the western ghats as seen from the

Français : La chaine du mont Agasthiyamalai, au sud des
Ghâts occidentaux, vue depuis la région de Tirunelveli, dans le
Tamil Nadu, en Inde. Cette région constitue un désert d'abri: les masses d'air humide de la mousson s'élèvent le long des Ghâts occidentaux, et produisent des pluies qui s'abattent sur l'état du
Kérala, à l'ouest. A l'est de la montagne, la plaine reste sèche.
