Geography

gogolik [260]3 years ago

The movement of air through Earth's -- or any planet's -- atmosphere is called wind, and the main cause of Earth's winds is uneven heating by the sun. This uneven heating causes changes of atmospheric pressure, and winds blow from regions with high pressure to those with low pressure.

A sediment deposit close to the continental rise having a coarse material overlaid by successively finer materials of nonmarine
Elza [17]

Answer:

A sediment deposit close to the continental rise having a coarse material overlaid by successively finer materials of non marine origin is called a turbidite.

.

Explanation:

Turbidity current is the movement of sediment laden water . It is caused by the high density nature of sediments . The current is prevalent in oceans and lakes and it one process that transport sediments from coastal areas to deep sea.

The sediments in the current makes the flow denser and very rapid. The rapid nature of the movement of this sediment laden water causes a kind of selective deposition in deep sea. The more coarse sediments are deposited before less coarse sediments. The sediments deposited fines upward. The coarsest sediments are found at the bottom and it fine upward.

Turbidites are sediments deposited by turbidity currents which gradually change from coarse grain to fine grain sediments. The continental rise is the boundary between continents and the deep part of the oceans. This area is usually laden with sediment deposited by turbidity current. The sediments laden water moves downhill.

Roads are sometimes salted to melt ice. what does this salting do to the plants along the roadside? why?
Rufina [12.5K]
Plants might take up some of the excess sodium chloride in the place of the magnesium and potassium they also need, leading to nutritional deficiencies.

Plants suffering from high levels of soil salt concentration often cause damage to their roots. Symptoms include yellowed leaves with scorched edges; potassium deficiencies are common problem. Needles on every green trees may turn yellow or brown in the spring.
