Why do some large commercial airlines fly in the stratosphere? ​
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

-Commercial jet aircraft fly in the lower stratosphere to avoid the turbulence which is common in the troposphere below. The stratosphere is very dry; air there contains little water vapor. Because of this, few clouds are found in this layer; almost all clouds occur in the lower, more humid troposphere.

mixer [17]

Answer:

  1. Reduced snow accumulations
  2. Earlier snowmelt in the Spring
  3. Spring flooding
  4. Less water in streams
  5. Reduced water availability

Explanation:

Less snow will fall in Winter due to the higher temperatures and, thus, will not accumulate. When there is less accumulated snow on the ground and the snowpack is thinner, then the snowmelt will occur earlier and faster in the Spring.  

Quicker snowmelt in the Spring will result in rivers overflowing their banks because they cannot hold such a rapid influx of water. Rapid water cycle runoff will cause Spring flooding.

The snowpack will, therefore, be depleted early in the Spring season, and due to the earlier and faster snowmelt, there will be less water in the streams during the Summer.

The consequential lack of slow mountain snowmelt during the summer season will result in rivers flowing much less vigorously and with less volume over water. This means that downriver communities will face summer water shortages.

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

This is an example of adaptation and enviromental pressure.

Explanation:

Say you were to move to somewhere where the climate is nothing like you are used to. You would have to adapt to the new climate. The animals in the Boreal forest have to adapt to the climate and know they don't get food in the winter.

The cold weather forces them to do this, honestly. So this is also an example of enviromental pressure bc nature is pressuring them to do this.

Hope this helps
