Massif peak.(7090 m)
 It is one of the major tributaries of the Brahmaputra River
joining it at Tezpur
 The Kameng River is about 257.18 kms long.
 Out of total length of River, 183.36 Km is within Arunachal
Pradesh and 73.82 Km is within Assam.
 The Kameng river is popularly known as Jia Bhareli in its
lower reaches (Assam).

The Mountainous Regime of the
Kameng River Basin
 The Himalayan drainage area of Kameng and its
tributaries are grouped into three zones.
 The Northern zone:- The precipitation (rainfall as well as
snowfall) in this zone is about 300 cm and the climate is
Temperate to Alpine. A few unnamed glaciers also exist in
this zone as evident from satellite imagery on the extreme
north of the basin in the vicinity of the Kangto massif
 The middle zone:- About 60 km wide attaining height
up to 4,877 m. Snow peaks are common. Rainfall
reaches 300 cm to 400 cm.
 The outer zone or southern zone:- The hilly area about
26 km broad, the general height being about 2,400 m
though it may attain 3,040 m. The climate is humid
Tropical and Temperate with rainfall exceeding 300 cm.
VEGETATION
 The natural vegetation of the Kameng Drainage Basin
can be divided in three distinct belts governed by the
altitude- Tropical up to 1800 m, Temperate 1800 m to
3500 m, and Alpine between 3500 m to 5500 m.
 The forest type ranges from tropical evergreen in the
foothills through temperate evergreen in the middle
ranges to the conifers in the higher elevations.
 Paddy is the main staple crop grown during the Kharif
season
