Longitude is the angular distance of a place east or west of the Greenwich meridian, or west of the standard meridian of a celestial object, usually expressed in degrees and minutes.
The Polynesians developed the fine art of navigation by stars, inherited from the early arab navigators. Arabians used hand measures to measure the height of the star above the horizon to determine their latitude according to the angle determined.
Based on maps I looked on, it seems that San Antonio, Texas, is the closest.
Layers of the soil are called horizons. Here are the horizons:
- Humus
- Topsoil
- Subsoil
- Fragmented rock
- Bedrock
Once a soil has developed, it forms layers called horizons. Beneath a surface layer of a plant remains, the topsoil is rich in decomposed plants and animal matter. The subsoil is mainly mineral particles, with much less organic material. The fragmented rock/bedrock is primarily small stones, and beneath it lies all bedrock.
