Hello!

The garbage patchs are a site with high concentrations of trash. They are formed by the ocean gyre, where the ocean have convergences zones forming a circle of currents. When the garbage join the circle, it can't go out, cause the currents make a kind of a permanent "wall".

We can locate garbages patchs in the South Atlantic Gyre, Indian Ocean Gyre and the South Pacific Gyre.

  1. It acts as an erosional agent.
  2. It acts as a stream flow equalizer, i.e., it is a sort of storage form in order to provide sustainability to the streams during dry periods.

How would the weathering of a bear mountain peak differ from the weathering of bedrock under a forest?
monitta

The weathering of the mountain peak will be mostly through the influence of the wind, water, and ice, while the bedrock under a forest will be influenced by the plants.

Explanation:

The weathering is a process that occurs everywhere in the world, on the surface and close to the surface of the planet. This process is basically the breaking up of particles from larger masses of rocks. Which type of weathering will be dominant at a particular place depends n multiple factors, such as:

  • topography
  • vegetation
  • climate
  • presence/absence of water

A bear mountain peak will be exposed to strong winds. Also, the lack of vegetation will enable the water from the rainfall to have big influence, while in the colder months the formation of ice will contribute to significant weathering. On the other side, the bedrock under a forest will have minimal influence from wind, water, and ice, as the vegetation provides protection. The vegetation on the other hand, with its roots, as well as with the decomposition will manage to weather the rocks, both on the surface and inside the ground.
