Explain how climate change has contributed to spatial and temporal variation of the natural process

Geography
1 answer:
insens350 [35]1 year ago
7 0

Answer:

Climate change can alter where species live, how they interact, and the timing of biological events, which could fundamentally transform current ecosystems and food webs. Climate change can overwhelm the capacity of ecosystems to mitigate extreme events and disturbance, such as wildfires, floods, and drought

Whats natural processes are responsible for the wave rock
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Geologists classify Wave Rock as a flared slope, a concave bedrock surface at the base of the inselberg. Its odd shape comes from two main processes: weathering and erosion. Chemical weathering of the softer rock at the base by groundwater did most of the work, while erosion from wind and rain added further touches.

PLEASE HELP ME ANSWER THIS…thank you
Murrr4er [49]

Answer: It is not realy a "split". That would imply two relatively large groups. The fact is that at least 85% of those who call themselves Muslim are all from one group. They are the people who follow the Qur'an and the example of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). They are called 'sunni' Muslims, by some people. In fact, they are simply true Muslims.

The other 15% are all deviant sects that have corrupted the true, original teachings. Anyone who studies Islam can see how the other groups have changed the original message.

Shiites, Ahmadiyyah, Alawi, Ismaili, Druze are some names of deviant groups.

In fact, Muhammad said that there would be such deviants; and he condemned their teachings as leading away from God. He said that the only rightly-guided group would be the one that stuck to the Qur'an and to his example. We thank God that it is the clear majority.

For an understanding of why the Shiite sect developed, you can go to Wikipedia for a detailed explanation. For examples of how they have gone astray from the healthy and true religion, you can go to You Tube and search: Real Shiah Faces.

EXERCISE 2.13 Why Are There More Earthquakes and Volcanoes on One Side of Some Continents than on the Other? (a) Are all contine
saw5 [17]

1. One side of the continents usually has a subduction zone, while the other side doesn't.

Explanation:

It can be easily noticeable that some continents have high geological activity on one side, while they are much calmer on the opposite side. This is because of the different types of plate boundaries. Very often, one side of the continents has a subduction zone nearby, thus it is very active geologically. The other, opposite side, usually has another type of plate boundary, or the boundary is far away, making that side of the continent much less active.

  • The subduction zones are places where one plate moves below another plate.
  • The result of a subduction zone is intense volcanic activity and earthquakes.
  • The absence of plate boundary near a continent's edge results in geologically stable area.

(a) No, not all continental coastlines are plate boundaries.

Explanation:

The majority of large plates on Earth's surface are continental tectonic plates. They are all different from each other though, be it in their size, their composition, the interaction with the other plates, the percentage of continental and oceanic crust they have etc. All continental plates have oceanic crust, thus their boundaries are strictly defined by the land mass. Some of continental plates have one boundary being further away in the ocean, while the other one actually to be roughly corresponding with the land mass.

  • The North American plate is an example where one side of the plate has its boundary along the edge of the land mass, while the other one is further away in the ocean.
  • The western boundary of the North American plate is with the Juan de Fuca and the Pacific plates, where there is subduction zones, and the boundary is roughly the same as the coastline.
  • The eastern boundary is with the Eurasian and slightly with the African plate. It is a divergent boundary, found in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.

(b) The west coast of Africa is geologically relatively calm, while the west coast of South America is geologically very active.

Explanation:

The west coasts of South America and Africa are very different. Apart from having different shape, which is nothing weird, there are several other crucial differences. The west coast of South America is actually the boundary of the plate, while the west coast of Africa is far away from the boundary of the plate. The west coast of South America has a subduction zone, thus it is very active geologically, while the west coast of Africa doesn't have a plate boundary nearby so it is relatively calm geologically.

  • The west coast of Africa has a broader continental shelf than the west of South America, with the main reason being that there isn't a plate boundary nearby.
  • The west coast of South America has very narrow continental shelf as there is a subduction zone nearby.
  • Because of the subduction zone on its western boundary, the South American plate is also near several ocean trenches.
  • The subduction zone and the intense geological activity along the west coast of South America contribute to lot of earthquakes, which can easily be seen by Chile's earthquake record.
