Geography

kkurt [141]4 years ago

The different standard times are known as time zones. Time zones are useful because  they can allow people to be active during the day and sleep during the night. If people spent hours with sunlight sleeping and worked in the dark, they would likely suffer health problems.

Big countries such as Australia and the United States have many time zones so that people can work and sleep in the time that is adjusted to the hours with sunlight in their specific location.

Hypothesis for drought​
Burka [1]

Answer:

Drought is a condition, not a hypothesis. Drought is the lack of rain, or evaporation in excess of precipitation.

The CAUSE of drought is a multi-pronged hypothesis. It can be due to cyclic changes in ocean temperature (El Niño/La Niña). It can be due to rain shadow downwind of a mountain range. It can be due to fluctuations in the sun’s brightness. It can be the result of urban sprawl and resulting shifts in upwind evaporation/transpiration. It can be the result of climate bands shifting in response to changing atmospheric composition. It can be the result of agricultural practices upwind. It can be just bad luck, with a location consistently not being the whatever-percent chance of where it’s raining.
