The Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region is located on the northern border of the Republic of China, extending diagonally from northeast to southwest in a long and narrow shape. It is adjacent to the eight provinces and regions of Heilongjiang, Jilin, Liaoning, Hebei, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Ningxia and Gansu in order in the east, south and west, spanning the three norths (Northeast, North China and Northwest), close to Beijing and Tianjin; in the north it borders Mongolia and Russia, with Erenhot City and Manzhouli City are two important ports.
The Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region has a higher terrain, with an average altitude of 1,000 meters. It is basically a plateau type landform area. In the world's natural divisions, the southeastern part of the famous Mongolian Plateau in central Asia and its surrounding areas, collectively known as the Inner Mongolia Plateau, is the second largest plateau among the four major plateaus in China. There are obvious differences in the internal structure. Plateau accounts for about 53.4% of the total area, mountains account for 20.9%, hills account for 16.4%, plains and beaches account for 8.5%, and rivers, lakes, reservoirs and other water surfaces account for 0.8%.
The landforms of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region are dominated by the Mongolian Plateau and have complex and diverse forms. Except for the southeast, it is basically a plateau, accounting for 50% of the total land area. It is composed of Hulunbuir High Plains, Xilingol High Plains, Bayannur-Alxa and Ordos high plains. The average altitude is 1,000 meters. The highest point is the main peak of Helan Mountain, which is 3,556 meters above sea level. rice. The northeast is adjacent to the Waixing'an Mountains and so on. The plateau is surrounded by mountains such as the Daxinganling Mountains, Yinshan Mountains (Langshan Mountain, Serteng Mountain, Daqingshan Mountain, Huitengliang Mountain), and Helan Mountain, forming the backbone of the Inner Mongolia plateau landscape. The northernmost and northeastern parts are close to the Shilka River, Gelbiqi River, Onen River and Halaha River. At the western end of the Inner Mongolia Plateau are the Badain Jaran Desert, Tengger Desert, Ulan Buh Desert, Kubuqi Desert, Mu Us Desert, etc., with a total area of 150,000 square kilometers.
At the eastern foot of the Greater Khingan Mountains, at the foot of Yinshan Mountain and on the bank of the Yellow River, there are the plains on the west bank of the Nenjiang River, the Xiliao River Plain, the Tumochuan Plain, the Hetao Plain and the plain on the south bank of the Yellow River. The terrain here is flat, the soil is fertile, the sunlight is sufficient, and the water is abundant. It is the main production area of grain and cash crops in Inner Mongolia. In the transition zone from the mountains to the high plains and plains, there are loess hills and stony hills, mixed with low mountains, valleys and basins, where water and soil erosion is serious.
The Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region has a vast territory, is located at a high latitude, has a large plateau area, is far from the ocean, is blocked by mountains on its edges, and has a mainly temperate continental monsoon climate. It is characterized by low and uneven precipitation, strong winds, and dramatic changes in cold and heat. The northern section of the Greater Hinggan Mountains has a cold temperate continental monsoon climate, and the area west of Bayanhot-Haibowan-Bayangol has a temperate continental climate. The general characteristics are sudden rise in temperature and windy weather in spring, short and hot summer with concentrated precipitation, sharp drop in temperature in autumn, frost often comes early, and long and cold winter with frequent cold wave weather.
The Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region has abundant sunshine and rich light energy resources. Most areas have more than 2,700 hours of sunshine per year, and the western part of the Alxa Plateau has more than 3,400 hours of sunshine. The average number of windy days throughout the year ranges from 10 to 40, and 70% occur in spring. Among them, the Xilin Gol and Ulanqab Plateaus last for more than 50 days; the northern mountains of the Greater Khingan Mountains last for less than 10 days.
The number of sandstorm days in most areas ranges from 5 to 20 days, including western Alxa and Ordo
