Everything about The Central Siberian Plateau totally explained
The
Central Siberian Plateau is made up of sharply demarcated surfaces of varying altitudes occupying most of
Siberia between the
Yenisei and
Lena rivers. It extends over an area of 3.5 million km². The highest point is the
Putoran Mountains rising to 1701 m. To the north of the plateau are the
Putoran Mountains while to the south are the Eastern
Sayan and the
Baikal Mountains. To the east the plateau gives way to the low-lying land of the
Yakuts.
The climate is
continental, with short warm summers and long and very cold winters. Most of the territory is covered with
conifer forests (
larch is especially abundant). The plateau's major river is the
Lower Tunguska. Known geologically as the
Siberian Traps, mineral resources here are very rich and include
coal,
iron ore,
gold,
diamonds and
natural gas.
