2. INTRODUCTION
Cold and sunny climate is both chilly and
sunny in this case the air is cold to the point
that the energy from the sun not enough to
warm the place.
3. The area which is noun by the cold and sunny air condition is
leh (ladakh)
Leh is found in Indian
The area is mountainous, sparsely vegetated, and regarded as a
cold desert.
There is very little temperature
precipitation which is vary
between day and night
The settlement is steep slope
and facing southward for the
rezone to gate good insulation
during day time

5. Mustang, Nepal
Mustang, also known as the former Kingdom of Lo, is a remote and isolated region of the Nepalese Himalayas. It is situated in the north-central
part of Nepal, bordering the Tibetan Plateau, and is a part of the larger Mustang District. This region is known for its cold and desert climate, as it
falls in the rain shadow of the Himalaya.
This cold and desert-like climate has shaped the unique landscape and culture of the region. Mustang is characterized by its rugged, arid terrain
with barren hills and deep canyons. Vegetation is sparse, with only a few hardy shrubs and grasses managing to survive the harsh conditions.
Agriculture is limited and mostly depends on the irrigated river valleys, where crops like barley, wheat, and potatoes can be grown.
Despite its inhospitable environment, Mustang is home to a rich and unique culture that has been well preserved over the
centuries. The area is known for its ancient monasteries, unique architecture, and historical sites such as the walled city of
Lo Manthang, which was once the capital of the Kingdom of Lo. The people of Mustang, known as the Loba or the people of
Lo, have a distinct culture influenced by both Nepalese and Tibetan traditions. Buddhism is the dominant religion, and the
inhabitants speak a dialect of the Tibetan language.
The harsh climate and arid landscape have created a unique and fascinating ecosystem in Mustang. The region is home to
a surprising variety of wildlife, including the elusive snow leopard, blue sheep, and Himalayan Tahr . The Kali Gandaki
River, which flows through Mustang, is known for its fossils, including ammonites considered sacred and used as religious
symbols in the region.
6. Temperature on different months
Mustang in Spring (April and May) :-During this season, the average temperature at daytime is about 16°C to 22°C while -6°C to -2°C at
night.
Mustang in Monsoon (June to September):-The average daytime temperature ranges from 13°C to 20°C while the temperature drops
down from -3°C to 0°C at night. The temperatures are highest on average in June at around 11.0 °C.
Mustang in Autumn (October and November):-temperature range from 12 to 20°C at day and -8 to -4°C at night .
Mustang in Winter (December, January, and February):-January is the coldest month of the year. Its average temperature is about 0 to
5°C a day and -25 to 20 at night.
Humidity & wind speed
The region experiences around 46.2% relative humidity. May is the windiest months of the year followed by April. Its average wind speed of
around 4.1 knots (4.7 MPH or 7.5 KPH) is considered as “a light breeze”.
Maximum sustained winds are at their highest in late April where average top sustained speeds reach 9.3 knots. This is considered a gentle
breeze.
Rainfall
This region has a cold semi-arid desert climate due to its rain-shadow location, where the tall Himalayan range prevents most of the monsoon
rains from reaching it. However, it still experiences some seasonal rainfall, as well as winter precipitation in the form of snow.
While the Mustang region does not receive a large amount of rainfall, the precipitation varies during different seasons. The monsoon season
in Nepal typically occurs between June and September, but Mustang remains comparatively drier compared to other parts of the country.
Although the region receives some rainfall during this time, it is usually sparse and scattered.
In the winter months, which often extend from November to February, the region experiences much colder temperatures, and snowfall can
become quite common, particularly in the higher altitudes. The cold desert climate of Mustang, combined with its limited rainfall and snowfall,
Ground Condition
The region is situated in the rain shadow of the Himalayas, which means it receives significantly less rainfall than other areas in Nepal. As a
result, the landscape is predominantly arid, with dry and rocky terrain.Due to the cold and arid conditions, vegetation is sparse, and the
landscape is characterized by barren hills, rugged cliffs, and deep canyons. Water sources are scarce, which makes agriculture difficult in the
region.

there is higher range
During day from 17 to 24 degree calicos
During night from 4 to 11 degree calicos
The temperature during winter range
During day from -7 to 8 degree calicos
During night from -14 to 0 degree calicos
As a result winter are bitterly cold.
In this type of areas the average
highest temperature occurs in august
around 10.0 degree C or 50.1 degree F.
The lowest average temperature in
the year occur in January, when it is
around -20.6 degree C or -5.0 degree F.
8. Wind speed
The wind speed in a cold and sunny climate zone can vary greatly from month to
month.
In the winter months, wind speeds tend to be higher due to the cold air and the
increased pressure gradient between the cold air and the warmer air.
In the summer months, wind speeds tend to be lower due to the warmer air and
the decreased pressure gradient.
January: 8-12 mph
February: 8-14 mph
March: 10-15 mph
April: 10-15 mph
May: 10-15 mph

Daytime wind speeds in a cold and sunny climate zone can vary greatly depending on
the season.
In the winter, daytime wind speeds can range from 5 to 15 mph,
In the summer, daytime wind speeds can range from 10 to 25
mph.
Night time wind speeds in a cold and sunny climate zone are typically much lower
than daytime wind speeds.
In the winter, nighttime wind speeds can range from 0 to 5 mph,
In the summer, nighttime wind speeds can range from 5 to
10 mph.
10. Wind direction
In summer months the wind is predominantly flow from the west
In winter months cold wind and blow from the south and the southeast
In the cold and sunny climate zone, the prevailing wind direction is typically
from the west or northwest.
during the early morning the lower region get heat first hot air rise and move to
the higher parts those
result in warm wind from the
west during the evening

15. Air quality
The air quality in a cold and sunny climate zone can vary
greatly depending on the region and the season.
In general, air quality in cold and sunny climates tends to be
better than in other climates due to the lack of air pollution from
industry and vehicles.
During the winter months, air quality can be affected by the
burning of wood and other fuels for heating, as well as the
presence of dust and pollen.
During the summer months, air quality can be affected by the
presence of ozone, which is created when sunlight reacts with
pollutants in the air. In addition, air quality can be affected by
the presence of smoke from wildfires and other sources.
