Some examples of problems people are working to solve using applied geography include: identifying and reducing exposure of vulnerable communities to risks like drought, climate change, mining, agro-chemicals, or other risks; facilitating decisions about where to invest in public infrastructure; creating better access.
I think it's the first one and the third one. Not completely sure though.
Answer: a. Heavy rain and thunderstorms followed by lighter stratiform precipitation.
Explanation:
In their order of severity, thunderstorms range from single-cell, multi-cell, squall line, supercell, bow line to Mesoscale Convective systems (MCS)
. An MCS, therefore is a serious weather condition.
A Mesoscale convective system is an organized, group of thunderstorms with a wide geographical coverage and can last for hours. It can come with hail, flash floods, lake effect snow and trigger disasters such as tropical cyclones.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
in December, sensible heat flux over North America truly ranges from 0 to minus 100 (-100) W/m**2 while over Australia sensible heat flux ranges 50 to 200 W/m**2 or greater.
For much of the last quarter century, the leading theory of the driving force behind tectonic plate motions envisaged large scale convection currents in the upper mantle, which can be transmitted through the asthenosphere.
