It is called as paramo to that one land of important dimensions that is characterized by the absence of population and vegetation and for being located at a certain altitude.
The structure of the páramo is comparable to that of tabular relief which stands out for the orographic appearance of strata with the shape of tables and is settled on limestone-type soils (sedimentary rock made up mostly of calcium carbonate) that have practically no vegetation; dryland crops, heather and scrub are the most common occurrences.
Regarding the climate, we also find several peculiarities, since in the páramos the thermal amplitude is a fact, the regular winds and the scarcity of rivers, while and as a consequence of the considerable altitude that many páramos observe, in the times of rains is quite frequent the presence of fog.
It should be noted that those areas in which the moors are abundant are called moors. The Indian subcontinent, Central Asia, Tropical Africa, North Americaamong others, are some of the places where we can find this type of environment.
And also the word páramo designates the mountain ecosystems that extend discontinuously in the Neotropics, as the region that contains part of South America, Central America, the Caribbean and Mexico is called. Obviously they share the typical characteristics of the páramo mentioned above.
