The best pyramid for this is the biomass pyramid. That is because they show how much ecological material can be found at each trophic level, which then can be used to model how the matter flows through the ecosystem that is being analyzed.

Mkey [24]
<span>The marine west coast climate is a biome characteristic of being located midway between the tropics and arctic or Antarctic regions of the world, most often between 35 and 60 degrees north. This climate's major characteristics are mild summers and winters and abundant annual precipitation. This ecosystem is highly influenced by its proximity to the coast and to mountains. It is sometimes known as the humid west coast climate or the oceanic climate. In additional to coastal plains and mountains, this type of climate is often characterized by glacial valleys and fjords.

Marine west coast climates are typically found to the west of large mountain ranges that cause fronts to collide and release all of their precipitation. Wet warm air from the coast rises and cools as it goes over the mountain. This causes the water in the air to cool and condense, resulting in rain, drizzle, and fog. Then drier air proceeds inland. This is known as the rain shadow effect, which in basic terms is when a mountain blocks the advance of wet weather, creating a dry biome on the other side and a wet biome on the ocean side. This results in a very special climate.

Think of areas such as British Columbia in Canada, Washington and Oregon in the United States, and most of the continent of Europe. Parts of Africa and Australia are also considered marine west coast despite not being located on a west coast of the continent.</span>

The extent to which the human and natural resources of an area or country are brought into full productive use is called:_______
siniylev [52]

Answer: Development

Explanation: The human and natural resources in a developed area or country are brought to their full potential and to the benefit of the people who are citizens or residents there.

Development can be measured economically by the Gross Domestic Product GDP and by its effect on people through the Human Development Index HDI. While GDP measures the total goods and services produced, the HDI measures the level of education and opportunities available to people in the area or country.

Xelga [282]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. glacial tills and cirques Till is derived from the erosion and entrainment of material by the moving ice of a glacier. It is deposited some distance down-ice to form terminal, lateral, medial, and ground moraine. Cirques form by the accumulation of snow and ice avalanching from upslope areas. The size of cirque glaciers ranges from glaciers that are completely limited within hosting bedrock hollows, to glaciers that form the heads of large valley glaciers.

2. ENERGY FROM THE SUN heats up the air at the equator most because of the curvature of the earth. This tends to rise up then head toward the poles where it cools and moves closer to the surface and then more or less back toward the equator.

THE ROTATION OF THE EARTH makes the movement of air relative to the surface of the earth seem to deflect. This Coriolis effect doesn't affect your toilet flushing, but does influence large scale wind patterns and hurricanes.

THE LATITUDE OF VANCOUVER roughly half way between the equator and the north pole positions us so the large scale wind patterns tend to bring us winds from the west.

THE PACIFIC OCEAN sits to the west. Winds pick up moisture from it toward shore. Large bodies of water also tend to hang on to energy that keeps our temperatures more moderate.

THE COAST MOUNTAINS push the moist air upward so it cools off and can't hold on to as much moisture, so it rains.

THE TILT OF THE EARTH'S AXIS relative to the plane of our orbit around the sun means we are tilted away from the sun during winter, so it's cooler. This results in a greater temperature gradient between the equator and the north pole, and the winds get stronger. The cooler temperatures combined with more moisture-ladened wind brings more rain during winter.
