| Description |
English: The Agasthiyamalai range of the western ghats as seen from the rainshadow region of Tirunelveli, India. The southwest monsoon brings rain up to the ghats in Kerala while the other side in Tamil Nadu remains dry.
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 constitute 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.
