Who led the Japanese army, and what happened in Nanjing?
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

The Nanjing massacre occurred between December 1937 – January 1938.

Explanation:

Prince Yasuhiko Asaka, uncle in law to the emperor of Japan, was sent to lead Japanese forces against the Chinese during the Second Sino-Japanese War. After being defeated in Shanghai, the main Chinese army retreated to the countryside to give them an advantage over Japan. This left the city of Nanjing with limited soldiers and their civilians. The city was taken by the Japanese in one day. However, the occupation lasted 6 weeks. It is estimated that between 20,000 – 80,000 women were raped and around 300,000, mainly civilians, were killed.

Submarine channel levee definition?
kkurt [141]
This Is Your Answer

To date, facies architecture models of submarine channel–levees have largely been derived from seismic data, isolated core data and limited field studies. We report field observations of an Upper Cretaceous submarine channel–levee complex within the Rosario Formation, Baja California, Mexico, which provide high-resolution data of lithofacies and ichnofacies distribution, and levee depositional thickness decay along transects perpendicular to the channel axis. Within the levee, both sandstone thickness and the overall proportion of sandstone decrease according to a power law away from the channel axis. Spatial variation in sedimentary structures away from the channel axis is predictable and provides an important link to the depositional flow regime. In channel-proximal locations, structureless sands, parallel lamination, overturned ripples, and ripple cross-lamination (including climbing ripple cross-lamination) are common; in channel-distal localities starved ripples are abundant. Sandstone bed thickness generally increases up stratigraphy within the levee succession, which is interpreted to indicate increasing turbidity current magnitude and/or contemporaneous channel floor aggradation reducing relative levee relief. However, in the most channel-proximal location sandstone bed thickness decreases with height; combined with evidence from both facies and palaeocurrent analysis this allows the position of the levee crest to be inferred. The thickest beds occur at higher levels with increasing distance from the channel axis, using this evidence we present a model for levee growth and migration of the crest.

Quantitative analysis of ichnofacies distribution reveals that traces typical of the Cruziana and Skolithos ichnofacies are superimposed over the ‘normal’ background Nereites ichnofacies, forming a ‘bioturbation front’ which is indicative of proximity to the channel. By analogy with modern canyons and channels, the association of Cruziana and Skolithos ichnofacies with the channel may be attributed to oxygen and nutrient enrichment and possible turbidity current transport of organisms responsible for these ichnofacies.

Why is it that New York City has a greater temperature range than Eureka, CA even though they are at the same latitude ?
Semmy [17]

Answer:

New York has a different geographical setting and location.

Explanation:

Most of New York is dominated by a geography which consists of farms, forests, rivers, mountains, and lakes. Eureka, California has a geography which consists of fertile farmlands of the Central Valley and the arid Mojave Desert. The geography of a place affects the climatic conditions such as temperature, precipitation etc.Areas with deserts will experience little rainfall and areas with rivers will experience high rainfall.

Another point is that the temperatures vary greatly because they have a different position on Earth. One is on the east coast and the other is on the west coast. Temperatures will be influenced by the position Earth has towards the sun and the axis angle.
