As you increase in elevation, there is less air above you thus the pressure decreases. As the pressure decreases, air molecules spread out further (i.e. air expands) and the temperature decreases. If the humidity is at 100 percent (because it's snowing), the temperature decreases more slowly with height.
Answer: CARTOGRAPHY
PLEASE HELP WITH MY MOST RECENT QUESTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!
An ox bow lake is formed from the deposition of sediment in the curve of a river. As the curve fills up with more sediment, it is eventually cut off from the rest of the river, forming a lake
Answer:
Between 2000 and 2012, the Aral Sea has experienced less water income, increased salinity, significant loss of water, the formation of separate parts, and huge loss of biodiversity.
Explanation:
The Aral Sea, once one of the largest in the world, has experienced a tragic story since 2000. Once a great and vibrant lake, it came on the verge of drying out and dissapearing from the map. The reasons for this have been the smaller water income, loss of water, increased salinity, formation of smaller separated lakes, and loss of biodiversity.
Because of agriculture, namely, cotton farming, the water supply to the lake has been significantly lowered, leading to larger evaporation than water income. The lake started to lose its water rapidly, and by becoming shallower its temperature rose, so the evaporation became even larger, the salinity increased, and from one large lake, few smaller ones have formed because a large portion of it dried out. Because of all of the aforementioned things the biodiversity suffered badly.
Perimeter is 46 because it is 8+16+6+4+12
To find the area split up the two shapes, the bigger one is 8 times 12 which is 96 then the second shape has an area of 4 times 6 which is 24, add those together and the area of the whole shape is 120.
