Answer:

The Himalayan Mountains by India, Nepal, and China are the best example of a convergent plate boundary.

Explanation:

The Himalayan Mountains are the highest mountain range in the world, but also the most massive one. It acts as a natural boundary between Southern, Southeastern, Eastern, Central, and Southwestern Asia. This mountain range is a relatively young one (geologically speaking), and it has formed because of the collision between the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates.

When India diverged from Gondwana, it started to move toward Eurasia. After tens of millions of years, the Indian plate hit the Eurasian plate from the south, and with both of the plates being continental and having a boundary with their continental parts, they created a convergent plate boundary. The pressure between the plates has resulted in lifting up the crust, gradually creating a huge mountain range.

What are the<br> effect of wind on temperature of a place.​
Alinara [238K]

Explanation:

Effects of Wind

on forecasted temperatures

At night, the earth's surface cools by radiating heat off to space. The strongest cooling takes place right near the surface while temperatures at roughly 3000 feet are actually warmer than those at the surface. On a windy night, some of the warmer air aloft is mixed down towards the surface. This occurs because the winds are faster aloft than at the surface.

To visualize this, place one hand over the other about six inches apart. The bottom hand represents the air near the surface and the top hand represents the warmer wind higher up. Move the bottom hand slowly and the upper hand faster (to indicate the faster winds aloft). The faster air above and slower air below causes the air to overturn or spin (as in the picture below). This overturning motion is how warmer air from above is transported downward on windy nights.

This process is mainly sponsored and under the wings of the Colombian cartels.
