Answer:

- Dry weather

- Windy conditions.

Explanation:

     There are two types of factors that determine the degree of fire hazard: constant factors, such as fuel material type, forest type and relief, and variable factors, such as fuel material humidity and weather conditions, such as wind speed and direction, relative humidity, temperature, dew point, precipitation and atmospheric instability.

     The intensity of a fire and its speed are directly linked to relative humidity, air temperature and precipitation. The possibility of occurrence as well as the frequency of fires are related to local weather conditions. Thus, the knowledge of the meteorological variables is an important step for the elaboration of prevention and firefighting programs in vegetation. From the climate analysis, it is possible to determine the periods most likely to occur, facilitating the adoption of preventive measures, the estimation of logistics for combat and damage caused by fire to the environment. However, it is emphasized that it is not enough that the factors directly associated with the occurrence of vegetation fires are favorable, for a fire to occur, a source of ignition is required to start the combustion process.

How does the presence of the moon influence ocean tides on earth?
Makovka662 [10]

The Short Answer:

High and low tides are caused by the moon. The moon's gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force. The tidal force causes Earth—and its water—to bulge out on the side closest to the moon and the side farthest from the moon. These bulges of water are high tides.

Explain an advantages and disadvantage of factories in East Asia?
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

One of the major advantages to working outside of China is that production costs can be dramatically lower. For example, in China, labor costs have risen over the past 15- 20 years, whereas in countries like Vietnam, India, and Bangladesh, the cost of labor has remained low. Another advantage is if you choose the right country for your product, it can decrease lead time and increase quality. A third advantage is that producing in other developing countries can help U.S. brands avoid Chinese tariffs.

However, there are also disadvantages to working outside of China.

The main challenge is that the raw material sources outside of China are not as broad as in China. Another is that infrastructure outside of China often lags, which means lead times can become a challenge and production delays can be more common.

Hope it helps!

Explain how an increase of the annual melt season in Antarctica can have global effects.
zysi [14]

Answer:

A longer melt season in Antarctica leads to a greater loss of land-based glacier ice. The water from the melted land glaciers runs into the oceans and leads to an overall increase in volume. This change has global effects.

How does this alignment between the Earth, the Sun and the moon impact the tides on
Naily [24]

Answer:

Explanation

When the sun, moon, and Earth are in alignment (at the time of the new or full moon), the solar tide has an additive effect on the lunar tide, creating extra-high high tides, and very low, low tides — both commonly called spring tides. ... A similar situation occurs between the Earth and the sun.
