Tibet, the Roof of the World, is the highest plateau in the world. However, most of its land is arid or a semi-desert. The average annual precipitation is about 381 mm (about 15 inches) and is significantly less in some areas. Tibet experiences bitterly cold weather and is lashed by harsh winds throughout the year. The average annual temperature is around 1.1 degrees Celsius (34 degrees Fahrenheit).

The mountains are treeless, with only grasses and shrubs growing. Tibetan people live in the valleys of the Indus and the Brahmaputra, where they are able to grow some crops. The river valleys also support a few species of trees including oak, cypress, polar and maple. In addition, the people grow apple, peach, pear and apricot trees.

A sediment deposit close to the continental rise having a coarse material overlaid by successively finer materials of nonmarine
Elza [17]

Answer:

A sediment deposit close to the continental rise having a coarse material overlaid by successively finer materials of non marine origin is called a turbidite.

.

Explanation:

Turbidity current is the movement of sediment laden water . It is caused by the high density nature of sediments . The current is prevalent in oceans and lakes and it one process that transport sediments from coastal areas to deep sea.

The sediments in the current makes the flow denser and very rapid. The rapid nature of the movement of this sediment laden water causes a kind of selective deposition in deep sea. The more coarse sediments are deposited before less coarse sediments. The sediments deposited fines upward. The coarsest sediments are found at the bottom and it fine upward.

Turbidites are sediments deposited by turbidity currents which gradually change from coarse grain to fine grain sediments. The continental rise is the boundary between continents and the deep part of the oceans. This area is usually laden with sediment deposited by turbidity current. The sediments laden water moves downhill.
