List of highest mountains

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Aerial view of Mount Everest from the south. The peak rises over Lhotse (#4), while Nuptse is the ridge on the left.

See also:  List of tallest mountains in the Solar System

There are at least 100 mountains with heights of over 7,200 metres (23,622 ft) above sea level, all of which
are located in central and southern Asia. Only those summits are included that, by an objective measure,
may be considered individual mountains as opposed to subsidiary peaks.

Considerations[edit]
One of figures of topographic prominence: The prominence of a peak is the height of the peak’s summit above the lowest contour line

encircling it and no higher summit. For example, vertical arrows show the topographic prominence of three peaks on an island. A dotted

horizontal line links each peak (except the highest) to its key col.

The dividing line between a mountain with multiple peaks and separate mountains is not always clear (see
also Highest unclimbed mountain). A popular and intuitive way to distinguish mountains from subsidiary
peaks is by their height above the highest saddle connecting it to a higher summit, a measure
called topographic prominence or re-ascent (the higher summit is called the "parent peak"). A common
definition of a mountain is a summit with 300 m (980 ft) prominence. Alternatively, a relative prominence
(prominence/height) is used (usually 7–8%) to reflect that in higher mountain ranges everything is on a
larger scale. The table below lists the highest 100 summits with at least 500 m (1,640 ft) prominence,
approximating a 7% relative prominence. A drawback of a prominence-based list is that it may exclude
well-known or spectacular mountains that are connected via a high ridge to a taller summit, like
the Eigeror Nuptse. A few such peaks and mountains with nearly sufficient prominence are included but not
numbered in this list.

It is very unlikely that all given heights are correct to the nearest metre; indeed, the sea level is often
problematic to define when a mountain is remote from the sea. Different sources often differ by many
metres, and the heights given below may well differ from those elsewhere in this encyclopedia. As an
extreme example, Ulugh Muztagh on the north Tibetan Plateau is often listed as 7,723 m (25,338 ft) to
7,754 m (25,440 ft), but appears to be only 6,973 m (22,877 ft) to 6,987 m (22,923 ft). Some mountains
differ by > 100 m (330 ft) on different maps, while even very thorough current measurements of Mount
Everest range from 8,840 m (29,003 ft) to 8,850 m (29,035 ft). These discrepancies serve to emphasize the
uncertainties in the listed heights.

Though some parts of the world, especially the most mountainous parts, have never been thoroughly
mapped, it is unlikely that any mountains this high have been overlooked, because synthetic aperture
radar can and has been used to measure altitudes of most otherwise inaccessible places. Still, heights
and/or prominences may be revised, so that the order of the list may change and even "new" mountains
could enter the list over time. To be safe, the list has been extended to include all >7,200 m
(23,622 ft) peaks.

The highest mountains above sea level are generally not the highest above the surrounding terrain. There
is no precise definition of surrounding base, but Mount McKinley, Mount Kilimanjaro andNanga Parbat are
possible candidates for the tallest mountain on land by this measure. The bases of mountain islands are
below sea level, and given this consideration Mauna Kea (4,207 m (13,802 ft) above sea level) is
the world's tallest mountain and volcano, rising about 10,203 m (33,474 ft) from the Pacific
Ocean floor. Ojos del Salado has the greatest rise on Earth—13,420 m (44,029 ft) from the summit[citation
needed]
 to the bottom of the Atacama Trench about 560 km (350 mi) away, though most of this rise is not part
of the mountain.
The highest mountains are also not generally the most voluminous. Mauna Loa (4,169 m or 13,678 ft) is
the largest mountain on Earth in terms of base area (about 2,000 sq mi or 5,200 km2) and volume (about
10,000 cu mi or 42,000 km3), although, due to the intergrade of lava from Kilauea, Hualalai and Mauna
Kea, the volume can only be estimated based on surface area and height of the edifice). Mt. Kilimanjaro is
the largest non-shield volcano in terms of both base area (245 sq mi or 635 km2) and volume (1,150 cu mi
or 4,793 km3). Mount Logan is the largest non-volcanic mountain in base area (120 sq mi or 311 km2).

The highest mountains above sea level are also not those with peaks farthest from the centre of the Earth,
because the figure of the Earth is not spherical. Sea level closer to the equator is several miles farther from
the centre of the Earth. The summit of Chimborazo, Ecuador's tallest mountain, is usually considered to be
the farthest point from the Earth's centre, although the southern summit of Peru's tallest
mountain, Huascarán, is another contender.[1] Both have elevations above sea level more than 2 km less
than that of Everest.

Geographical distribution[edit]

Map of up to 200 coordinates from Bing

Most mountains in the list are located in the Himalaya and Karakoram ranges to the south and west of the
Tibetan plateau. In fact, all 7,000 m (23,000 ft) peaks in the world are located in the centre of Asia (East
Asia, Central Asia and South Asia) in a rectangle edged by Noshaq (7,492 m or 24,580 ft) on
the Afghanistan-Pakistan border in the West, Jengish Chokusu, (Tuōmù'ěr Fēng) (7,439 m or 24,406 ft) on
the Kyrgyzstan – Xinjiangborder to the North, Gongga Shan (Minya Konka) (7,556 m or 24,790 ft)
in Sichuan to the East, and Kabru (7,412 m or 24,318 ft) on the Sikkim (India) – Nepal border to the South.

The highest mountain outside of Asia is Aconcagua (6,962 m or 22,841 ft), which one list has ranking 189th
in the world amongst mountains with a 500 m or 1,640 ft prominence cutoff. [2]

The locations of the highest mountains are shown on the composite satellite image of High Asia below. The
numbers refer to the ranking in the list. For clarity, lower peaks with labels overlapping higher peaks are left
out of the main image. The boxed regions are those with the highest density of summits and are enlarged
in two separate images to show all peaks.

Stem and leaf plot[edit]

The following is a stem and leaf plot of the above data. The two digits to the left of the line are the first two
digits of the mountain's height (meters), and each digit to the right of the line represents the third digit of the
mountain's height. Each number on the right is linked to the corresponding mountain's article. For example,
the height of one of the mountains (namely Mount Everest) is 884x meters. Also, it is apparent that there
are only 5 mountains above 8,200 meters.
