Ganezh [65]3 years ago
4 0

The correct answer is - Amazon Basin.

The northern half of Brazil is dominated by the Amazon Basin. This basin is formed by one of the longest rivers in the world, the Amazon River, which is also the river that has the highest amount of water in it. It lies in the middle of the Amazon Basin, cutting it in half, and in certain parts of the year flooding parts of it. This basin is covered by tropical rainforest, in fact the largest tropical rainforest in the world, the Amazon rainforest. It is an area dominated by lowlands and small hills, cut by thousands of smaller and larger rivers, all of which are tributaries to the largest one, the Amazon River. This basin is also the place on the planet that has the highest biodiversity in the world of plants or animals.

Why is there not a significant rain shadow effect east of the Rocky Mountains?
Mamont248 [21]
There is a significant rain shadow effect east of the Rockies. One prime example is Denver. Over the course of a year it would typically receive ~20 inches of rain, but many locations to the west of the continental divide receive as much as 40 inches of rain a year. (It's important to note that the rain shadow effect only impacts storms and winds traveling against the mountains. If a storm travels south to north, the effect is severely diminished and can result in a situation where the lee side of the mountains receives more rainfall than the wind side of the mountains.

1) Calculate mean yearly temperature using the data in the chart below. Give the answer to two decimal places.
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

(a) Mean yearly temperature = 10.58

(b) July = 24^\circ C

Explanation:

Given:

The attached chart

Solving (a): The mean yearly temperature.

This is calculated as:

\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n}

\bar x = \frac{-5 + 2 + 6 + 10+15 + 22+24+21+17+12+6-3}{12}

\bar x = \frac{127}{12}

\bar x = 10.58

Solving (b): The mean July temperature.

From the chart:

July = 24^\circ C
