Answer:

Cold and hunger

Explanation:

    The so-called Russian Campaign in France, or the Patriotic War in Russia, was a pivotal point for the dreaded French army, which was eventually massacred by cold and hunger and forced to return to France, pursued by the Russians. On the way home, many men died.

     Of the 500,000 Napoleon troops who had headed for Russia, only 27,000 returned. This defeat caused a major change in European politics, as it weakened French hegemony and severely shook Napoleon's reputation as an unbeatable military genius.

     Napoleon abandoned his men and returned to Paris to secure his position as Emperor and to prepare resistance to the advances of the Russians. The Russian campaign, which began on June 24, 1812, ended with the taste of defeat the following December 14, when the last French troops left Russia.

In the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, the Coriolis effect changes the direction of wind circulation, affecting the weather.
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

The arrows of circulation that most affect the US climate are the arrows on the left side of the northern hemsphere. In the attached image below you can see these cetas highlighted by a pink square.

Explanation:

As shown in the question above, the Coriolis Effect is an atmospheric phenomenon that modifies the direction of wind circulation in the terrestrial globe, completely modifying the climate of the regions. This phenomenon occurs due to the rotation of the earth on its own axis, which has the ability to create a reference system for this rotation.

The Coriolis effect has the ability to change the direction of winds within the hemispheres. This causes winds in the southern hemisphere to turn clockwise while winds in the northern hemisphere turn counterclockwise.

The US is located in the northern hemisphere, on the left side of the globe, as shown in the attached figure below.

Differentiate between tropical evergreen and tropical deciduous forests.
Salsk061 [2.6K]

The tropical forests can roughly be divided into two major groups, tropical evergreen forests and tropical deciduous forests. The division is made in accordance to the characteristics of the trees.

The trees in the tropical evergreen forests are green throughout all of the year. The reason behind this is that they have constant temperature all year long, and constantly high amounts of rainfall all year long, so there is no need for them to shed their leaves.

The trees in the tropical deciduous forests, on the other hand, are shedding their leaves. This means that in one part of the year these trees have green leaves, while in the other part of the year they are shedding their leaves and the branches are stripped. The main reason behind this is that the rainfall occurs only seasonally, when pretty much all rainfall for the year falls in few months. After that, a very long period of drought and very high temperatures starts. In order to survive and not get damaged, the trees are shedding their leaves, thus they almost put them selves in an hibernating phase until the next rainy season.
