The state of
Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) lies
between 4 degrees of latitude from
32.17 to 36.58 North.
Within these
640 kms. there is a sudden rise of
altitude from 305 mtrs. to 6910
mtrs. above sea level. J&K,
therefore, lies between the hot
plains of the Jammu province and
coldest dry desert-land of Ladakh.
These territories are, as such,
transitional in climate.
