Why do sesonal conditions vary in part of the world

History
1 answer:
Lerok [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Para empezar, la Tierra no es una esfera perfecta. Y cuando gira sobre su eje (una línea imaginaria que atraviesa el mundo desde el Polo Norte al Polo Sur), su rotación se parece más a la de una peonza que a la de una esfera, bamboleándose y desviándose continuamente. Es lo que se conoce como "movimiento polar".

Las mediciones realizadas durante décadas demuestran que, solo durante el siglo XX, el eje de giro se desplazó alrededor de 10 cm por año. Lo que, durante todo el siglo, supone un desplazamiento de más de 10 metros. Ahora bien, ¿a qué se debe exactamente esta deriva?

Un equipo de investigadores de la NASA ha utilizado datos observacionales que abarcan todo el siglo XX y ha conseguido, por primera vez, identificar las causas del desplazamiento. Son tres: la pérdida de masa, principalmente en Groenlandia; el llamado "rebote glacial" y, por último, la convección del manto. El estudio se acaba de publicar en Earth and Planetary Science Letters, y cualquier persona que esté interesada puede acceder a una simulación interactiva de cómo los varios procesos contribuyen al "bamboleo" del eje de rotación terrestre.

'La explicación tradicional - afirma Surendra Adhikari, investigador del Jet Propulsion Laboratory de la NASA y autor principal del trabajo- es que un solo proceso, el rebote glacial, es responsable de este desplazamiento del eje de rotación terrestre. Pero recientemente, muchos investigadores han especulado que otros procesos podrían tener también grandes efectos sobre él. Elaboramos modelos para un conjunto de causas que se consideran importantes para impulsar el movimiento del eje de rotación. Al final no identificamos uno, sino tres conjuntos de procesos que son cruciales. Y la fusión de la criosfera global (especialmente Groenlandia) a lo largo del siglo 20 es uno de ellos".

Why was Germany finally able to reunify?
GuDViN [60]
<span>(C)The Soviet Union and East German government collapsed.

After or Close to the collapse of the USSR, many East Germans secretly moved into West Germany, for the economy of East Germany was failing, and they didn't have as much 'freedom' as the Western side. Because of it's lowering population and the weakening of the USSR, East Germany decided to reunify with West Germany.

How does Paine think the practice of choosing a monarch was originally different from today
igomit [66]

Paine states that mankind was originally at a state of equality and the subsequent appearance of all distinctions between human beings have to been brought about by an unnatural circumstance. This distinction between people is "not one of heaven".

Pain believes that men have committed a serious mistake when deciding to have someone other than God to govern them. In the past, a person worthy of certain honors would be named as ruler. From them on, his descendants were expected to inherit the ruler's power. This is a practice that has been going on until today. However, Paine considers this to be a mistaken practice, as no person deserves any sort of honors that belonged to his descendants.
