Also if you do this D will become prime fertile land. Moving the regions will work as well provided you shrink them vertically at the same time. | |
| Jul 16, 2017 at 14:32 | comment | added | Pedro Gabriel | Also, the reason why my continent extends too much vertically is because I wanted to have a continent with as much deserts as possible, but also a great variety of deserts. This includes cold deserts. | |
| Jul 16, 2017 at 14:26 | comment | added | Pedro Gabriel | @John: IOW, if I move A a little south and C a little north, so that both would rest more in the 30º area, would I achieve the desired effect? | |
| Jul 16, 2017 at 14:23 | comment | added | Pedro Gabriel | @John: Thank you for your answer. As I said in a comment in the OP: I see now that my map has some flaws in it, since C was meant to be exactly between 30 and 45º, to take advantage of the Hadley Cell. I think I extended C too much southward from what I intended | |

| Jul 16, 2017 at 14:16 | comment | added | John | yes which is why B is fine, but you don't have mountains in most other places. and even mountains can only do so much compared to latitude, the central US has mountains on both sides for instance and part of it is our prime farmland. Prevailing winds also move vertically as well as horizontally so they will bend a bit around many of your mountain ranges. | |
