The statement is correct.
When a flood is giving a time-bonding term, such as the 100-year flood, in this statement, it means that it has been noticed that the floods from the particular river occur on approximately that much of a time span.
If there has been a flood recently, than it most probably means that there isn't going to be a flooding caused by that river for the foreseeable future.
Now, there's always exceptions, as the climate patters are changing constantly, and there's always surprises, but in general, in lot of regions of the world, there has been noticed a certain consistency in some natural occurrences.
Answer: Is prone to desertification or drought.
Explanation: The Sahel region is located in Africa between the Sahara to the north and the Sudanian Savanna to the south.
The Sahel has a semi arid climate which is characterized by precipitation below potential evapotranspiration.
What this means is that the amount of water that would be evaporated and transpired by a specific crop or ecosystem is low. This region is prone to desertification or drought because of the low amount of water evaporated and transpirated in the region.
The desert gets less than twenty inches of rainfall per year.
You could name it two ways! You can either do IH or HI. Since there are only two letters, you can only rearrange or name IH 2 different times.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
This problem should be worked on by the most developed countries as they have the biggest capacity, and after they get on the right way to help the developing countries and show them the way as to how to do it as well.
Explanation:
The carbon emissions that humanity is releasing into the atmosphere can not be attributed to only a few countries, but to most of the countries in the world. All countries that have some kind of industry contribute to the problem, though some countries much more than others.
In order for carbon emissions to decrease there should be a global collaboration. The most developed countries because they have the most finances and resources should lead the way and come up with solutions, and once they do this to help the developing countries with it so that they can also stop the carbon emissions.
Many countries are already on the right path, namely Germany, the Netherlands, France, the Scandinavian countries. The two biggest economies though, the US and China don't even want to hear about this because of their race for economic dominance, so it seems that reasoning the governments of these two countries will be the most important step for global turnaround.
