Answer:

Reduced snow accumulations
Earlier snowmelt in the Spring
Spring flooding
Less water in streams
Reduced water availability

Explanation:

Less snow will fall in Winter due to the higher temperatures and, thus, will not accumulate. When there is less accumulated snow on the ground and the snowpack is thinner, then the snowmelt will occur earlier and faster in the Spring.

Quicker snowmelt in the Spring will result in rivers overflowing their banks because they cannot hold such a rapid influx of water. Rapid water cycle runoff will cause Spring flooding.

The snowpack will, therefore, be depleted early in the Spring season, and due to the earlier and faster snowmelt, there will be less water in the streams during the Summer.

The consequential lack of slow mountain snowmelt during the summer season will result in rivers flowing much less vigorously and with less volume over water. This means that downriver communities will face summer water shortages.

Calculate the total mass of water in kg on Earth's surface from the following data: total planetary surface area: 510,066,000 km

irinina [24]

Answer:

The total mass of water in on Earth's surface is $3.61419\times 10^{22} kg$ .

Explanation:

Total planetary surface area = T = $510,066,000 km^2$

Total land area of planet = L = $148,647,000 km^2$

Total water area of planet = W

T = L + W

$510,066,000 km^2=148,647,000 km^2-W$

$W=510,066,000 km^2-148,647,000 km^2=361,419,000 km^2$

Volume = Area × Depth

Volume of water on earth = V

V= $361,419,000 km^2\times 100 km^=36,141,900,000 km^3$

$km^3=10^{12} L$

$V=36,141,900,000 km^3=36,141,900,000 \times 10^{12} L$

Total mass of total water on the earth = M

Density of the water,D = 1 g/mL = 0.001 kg/0.001 L=1 kg/L

1 g - 0.001 kg

1 mL = 0.001 L

$D=\frac{M}{V}$

$M=D\times V$

$M =1 kg/L\times 36,141,900,000 \times 10^{12} L=3.61419\times 10^{22} kg$

The total mass of water in on Earth's surface is $3.61419\times 10^{22} kg$ .

A place where salt water and fresh water meet is called a(n) .tributary or an estuary

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

An estuary is where salt water and fresh water meet. Estuaries are usually found at the edge of the coast, where the ocean water, or salty water, meets river, lake, any fresh water source, water.

A tributary is something completely different. It is a, usually smaller than the main river or lake, river/stream stemming off a bigger river or lake, or flowing into that river or lake.
