Geography

Answer:

As the <u>temperature inversion</u> occurs around this zone

Explanation:

  • Troposphere The lowest layer of atmosphere found on the surface of the earth from 0 to 30 kilometers it's wider in equator i.e 18 km and narrows at poles till 6-8 km only. At this layer, 90 % of all convective activity takes place, turbulence and cloud formation like stuff.  
  • Consists of 80% of water vapor and dust particles. In troposphere the temperature in the air decrease with gain in height with a height of an overall positive lapse rate of 6.5 degrees C / km. The onset of tropopause the region where mixing stops and temperature remains constant and extends up to a layer of 11 to 20 kilometers.
  • However, lapse rate variation sometimes occurs in between this sphere and affects the altitude of the tropopause. The seasonal effect is strongest at the mid-latitudes and varies with changes latitudes.

Effects of UHI on the humans​
Elina [12.6K]

HI is most noticeable during the summer and winter. The main cause of the urban heat island effect is from the modification of land surfaces. Waste heat generated by energy usage is a secondary contributor. As a population center grows, it tends to expand its area and increase its average temperature.

Choose a technology advancement in agriculture, such as the use of modern fertilizer, pesticides, or refrigeration. How has this
Blababa [14]

I would take the advancement of the refrigeration as a crucial part in the increasing of the production.

The refrigeration has been extremely important in the agriculture and the amount of production in it, because with it the agricultural products can be kept fresh for much longer periods. Because the products can be kept fresh for much longer time, that means that they can be delivered to pretty much every part of the world and not be spoiled. So the refrigeration opened up the doors for the farmers in the sense that instead producing only for the region or the country they live in, they can now produce much more for exporting, as the products will not spoil and remain fresh. That has also brought in much bigger profit for the farmers, and the production is constantly increasing because the whole market in the world is open with this technological advancement.
