Latitude is used together with longitude to specify the precise location of features on the surface of the Earth.

Answer:
Surface Currents
Surface waters of the Earth's ocean are moved primarily by winds. The sun's energy drives the major wind systems of the atmosphere. Because of Earth's spherical shape, the surface is heated unequally. The result is global wind patterns, which cause winds to blow across the oceans.

Answer: The Government of India Act 1935 was an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom.
Explanation: It originally received Royal assent in August 1935 (25 & 26 Geo. 5 c. 42). Until 1999, it was the longest Act (British) of Parliament ever enacted. At that time, the Greater London Authority Act 1999 surpassed it in length. Because of its length, the Act was retroactively split by the Government of India Act, 1935 (Re-printed) (26 Geo. 5 & 1 Edw. 8 c. 1) into two separate Acts:
1. The Government of India Act, 1935 (26 Geo. 5 & 1 Edw. 8 c. 2), having 321 sections and 10 schedules.
2. The Government of Burma Act, 1935 (26 Geo. 5 & 1 Edw. 8 c. 3), having 159 sections and 6 schedules.
References in the literature on Indian political and constitutional history are usually to the shortened Government of India Act, 1935 (i.e. 26 Geo. 5 & 1 Edw. 8 c. 2), rather than to the text of the Act as originally enacted.
Answer:SHANGHAI—For over three decades the Chinese government dismissed warnings from scientists and environmentalists that its Three Gorges Dam—the world's largest—had the potential of becoming one of China's biggest environmental nightmares. But last fall, denial suddenly gave way to reluctant acceptance that the naysayers were right. Chinese officials staged a sudden about-face, acknowledging for the first time that the massive hydroelectric dam, sandwiched between breathtaking cliffs on the Yangtze River in central China, may be triggering landslides, altering entire ecosystems and causing other serious environmental problems—and, by extension, endangering the millions who live in its shadow.
