After all ice caps have melted and the polar bears drown, and the coastal cities are all underwater, Al Gore will ride a spacecraft to the Moon or Mars and inhabit there and tell everyone I told you so...
Temperatures at high latitudes are usually lower than temperatures near the equator because <span>the solar energy must be spread over a larger area.
</span>
<span>In the tropics, places near the equator, temperature is high because there is a net energy surplus. Net energy surplus occurs because the amount of sunlight absorbed is larger than the amount of heat radiated.
In the polar regions, places near the pole or high latitudes, temperature is low because there is an annual energy deficit. The annual energy deficit occurs because the amount of heat radiated to space is larger than the amount of absorbed sunlight.</span>
Answer:
Rivers transport particles, from fine ones such as silt in turbid water to coarser ones such as sand, gravel, and boulders associated with bed-load transport. The speed and turbulence of currents enable transportation of these materials. When riverbed gradient or the river flow diminishes, particles tend to drop out.

Explanation: A subduction complex is a region of the Earth where one tectonic plate dives beneath another into the interior of the Earth. A subduction complex does not occur as a result of scraped CONTINENTAL CRUST from the top of a SUBDUCTING PLATE instead it occurs as a result of TECTONIC PLATES diving beneath another into the earth surface.
