The statement is - True.

The Ohio-Missouri-Mississippi (also referred to as MOM) River System is the largest and most significant river system in North America. The main river in this system is the Mississippi River, so the river system is most often referred to as just Mississippi RIver System and Missouri and Ohio rivers as one its biggest tributaries as well as the Arkansas, Illinois, and Red rivers. This system drains 41% of the USA and little of Canada as well. It has a big economic importance for the USA because 60% of the grain, 22% of oil and gas, and 20% of coal shipments are through it. Also if some measures are taken like reducing the meanders, correcting parts of the banks, regulation of the floodings, this river system will be by far the most economically important river system in the world by being able to support ships far inland into the U.S

Define atmospheric wind shear, and explain how the existence of wind shear creates eddies and air pockets that cause atmospheric
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

Wind Shear is the difference in direction and speed of the wind in the atmosphere within a specific distance.

Explanation:

Eddies are generated when  winds goes over a mountain creating vertical shear on the side that is sheltered from it, that creates air pockets causing atmospheric turbulence know as "rotors".

The change of direction and wind speed with altitude variation is called Vertical wind shear.

The change in wind speed together with a change in lateral position at a certain altitude is called Horizontal wind shear.

One scenario is a mountain with down-bursts and micro-bursts creating ice crystal plumes clouds that could warn pilots of wind shear, allowing then to avoid accidents.
