Answer:
The change in the ocean's temperature and salinity happens as we move further to the north and south of the equator. The reason for this is the icebergs and massive ice sheets. Icebergs after separating from the glaciers float in the oceans and start to melt. They provide cold and freshwater, lead to a change in the ocean. Antarctica and Greenland are the providers of the icebergs in the world.
I think it is C maritme tropical
Answer: Gneiss
Explanation: Gneiss is a metamorphic rock formed from shale at very high temperature and pressure condition. They exhibit a preferred alignment or orientation of platy minerals called foliation. They are coarse grained and exhibit gneissose banding. They are formed from highest grade regional metamorphism with temperature between 450 - 600 degree celcius and pressure between 800 - 1000 mega pascal. They generally occur in cores of fold mountain belts where mountain ranges have been eroded.
The correct answer is - Focus.
Focus of the earthquake, also referred to as hypocenter, is the location/point where the earthquake starts. It is usually few kilometres below the surface. At this spot the ground raptures after which seismic waves start radiating outward in all directions. The focus is located below the epicenter, or rather the epicenter is above it because the location of the epicenter is determined by the location of the focus, so the epicenter represents the closest point on the surface of the Earth from where the focus is.
Answer:
Geographic proximity of the gulf stream.
Explanation:
- The sea surface temperature of the oceanic climate and the zone of the western and northern Europe are same as that of the eastern coast of the united stated as these are located on the higher latitudes as the climate of the western Europe is similar to that of the subtropical and the semi-arid in the southern parts and that of the Mediterranean humid climate that is induced by the North Atlantic current.
- <u>The northern parts are closer to the baltic plains and the mainland of the Greenlands as the entire region climate is mostly impacted by the gulf stream and that brings the cool and cold subarctic and arctic type of climate. And the presence of the boreal forests that are also found in the tundra region.
</u>
- While that of the eastern coasts of the U.S have a temperate type of climate and the warm summer, cold and snowy winters and mild winters in the southern parts.
