Explain why air pollution on a global scale can affect air quality on a local scale?

Geography
1 answer:
Citrus2011 [14]3 years ago
3 0

The vast pollution which occurs globally can have a significant impact on air quality on a local scale. The reason for this is quite simple: polluted air can easily get trapped beneath a cloud cover, or be literally "blown" away to other locations, and when much polluted air gets accumulated, it can have devastating heath effects on a local population, not just to humans, but to animals and plants as well. Overall, the vast global pollution can effect the smallest of regions on an unprecedented scale.

As the spacing between isobars increases, the horizontal pressure gradient force?
Tju [1.3M]

As the spacing between isobars increases, the horizontal pressure gradient force and wind speed decrease.

The closer the spacing of isobars, the stronger is the strain gra- dient force. The stronger the stress gradient pressure, the stronger is the wind. thus, intently spaced isobars mean strong winds; extensively spaced isobars imply lighter wind.

The relationship between isobar spacing and wind velocity is that the closer the isobar spacing then the stronger the wind velocity. The spacing among isobars represents a stress differential among those two isobars. when two isobars are nearer together then the stress changes at a greater rate over distance.

The lines around high and low strain on a climate map are called isobars, or lines of equal stress, as shown in the above image on the left. While isobars are near together it is very windy; while they are further aside, conditions are more calm. The wind around highs usually blows in a clockwise direction.

Using complete sentences, identify the three major mountain ranges in the United States, and describe the relative location of e
Tpy6a [65]

The 3 major mountain ranges in the United States are the Pacific ranges and Rocky Mountains in the west and the Appalachian mountains in the east. The Pacific ranges are on the northwestern coast of the United States. The Rocky Mountains are in the western United States but east of the Pacific ranges. They extend all the way from Canada into Mexico and cover 8 states. The Appalachian Mountains are near the East Coast of the United States. They extend from Canada to Alabama. The main difference between the eastern mountain ranges and the western mountain ranges is their ages and heights. The Appalachian Mountain range is the oldest range in the United States. Because of this, the range has faced weathering and erosion, which has worn the mountains down. The highest peaks in the Appalachians are only 6,000 feet. The ranges in the west are much younger and in some cases still growing. The mountains in the west are much higher than those in the east, with peaks over 14,000 ft.
