    Extractions: Natural Resources and Geography Standards of Learning Correlation Resource Links Located entirely within the tropics, Peru is the third largest country in South America. Only Brazil and Argentina cover a greater area. Peru is a land of enormous contrasts in landscape and climate. The country lies in western South America along the Pacific Ocean between Chile and Ecuador. Peru can be divided into three distinguishable physiographic regions: the Pacific coastal zone; the highlands of the Peruvian Andes; and the selva, a region of forests and jungles. The long, narrow Pacific coastal zone consists of an arid desert created by the cool ocean currents and the orographic effect of the Andes Mountains on the southeast trade winds. This region also includes the western foothills of the Peruvian Andes. The Peru Current, an unusually cold ocean current, makes the coast cooler than is normal for a tropical region. Coastal temperatures average 73°F from November through April and 61°F from May through October. The coast seldom receives more than two inches of rainfall a year. Most of Peru's large cities lie in the coastal zone, including Lima, the capital and largest city. Most of Peru's large cities, commercial farms, and factories lie along the coast. Although very dry, about 50 rivers, which flow from the mountains, cross the region. The rivers provide irrigation water for coastal farms as well as drinking water for the towns and cities. The towering Andes Mountains rise east of the coast and extend north and south down the entire length of the country. The highlands consist of all areas of the Andes Mountains above 6,500 feet. At the highest elevations, the temperature never rises above freezing. The high peaks and slopes are permanently snow-covered, with some remnants of glaciers. Volcanoes, active and dormant, are confined mainly to the southern part of the highlands. The highest peak is 22,205-foot Huascaran, an extinct volcano. Narrow valleys and plateaus make up much of the region. A broad, highland plain in the southern Peruvian Andes called the altiplano was the heart of the Incan Empire, including the remains at Machu Picchu. Lake Titicaca, in the southern highlands, is Peru's largest lake, although the lake is shared with neighboring Bolivia. The Peruvian part of the lake covers 1,914 square miles. Lake Titicaca lies 12,507 feet above sea level and is the highest navigable lake in the world.
