Why are the N, S, E, and W designations often omitted from coordinates on U.S. topographic maps?

1 answer:

7 0

In a Topographic map, here are the programming values of each of that navgations:

N = positive value to the latitude
S= Negative value to the Latitude
W = Positive value to the longitude
E = Negative value to the longitude

Most programmers that work to create the topographic map choose to simply ommit the <span>N,S,W,&E</span> because it will save them a lot of time from having to type in a minus sign before most of their longitude values in code writing.<span>

What are the cycles that have historically controlled natural climate variability? List the name of each cycle, its natural time

Verdich [7]

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

Climate oscillation or climate cycles are a recurring oscillation within the global or regional climates and their fluctuations produce varying climatic cells and pressures often occurring on an interannual and multi annular basis.

On a decadal and millennium timescales.Current examples of the ENSO, Pacific oscillation, Antarctica, and arctic oscillation. like ENSO is characterized by flooding and drought conditions and the distribution of extreme conditions in the form of heat and cold waves.

Other cycles like the Piora oscillation, Little ice age, medieval warm period, retreating of glaciers and warming of the planet. All these cycles move on earth from the equator to tropics to temperate to polar areas and the continuous warming and cooling periods have altered the rate of spreading of the seafloor and oceanic basin.

Present warming has drastically created a major change in the evolution of species causing extinction and quick decomposition of resources. The release of carbon and methane gases over these years have raised the greenhouse effect at alarming rates.
