Tibetan Plateau affects the mechanism of Indian monsoon in the following manner:
1. It provides a high level energy source that has a notable impact on the monsoon.
2. There is a high atmospheric pressure area over this plateau, which is the part of sub tropical high atmospheric pressure belt.
3. This plateau region works as a blocking object.
4. Due to its height, it receives higher temperature in comparison to its neighboring areas and it affects the wind circulation in two ways, as a blocking object and as a high level energy source.
5. A great role of Tibetan plateau seen in jet – stream deviation.
6. In winter season, Tibetan plateau gets very cold, so jet stream gets shifted towards the south in mid – October.
7. In summer season, this region forms anticyclones in the form of a hot core.
