How stable is the quantity and quality of freshwater supplies in the United States?

Geography
1 answer:
zaharov [31]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The United States has a good amount of freshwater supply over most of the territory, because the American territory is ripe with lakes, rivers, streams, and groundwater.

The quality of these water sources varies from area to area, and many water bodies have been deeply polluted by human activity. However, the United States is a developed country with generally good  water treatment facilities.

Notwithstanding, the United States faces two important challenges: one is the growing population of the country, which will put more pressure on freshwater sources in the future. The other one is that a few areas of the country are devoid of water supply sources, and they are among the fastest growing regions of the U.S (Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico). This poises a great challenge for U.S. authorities in the near future.

This is the horizontal movement of air caused by heating from the sun and rotation of the planet.
Illusion [34]

The answer is;  Wind

They drive atmospheric circulation. The sun does not heat the earth evenly. The parts that are heated up more form the low-pressure systems where air masses move in from high-pressure systems to form winds. These air masses are also deflected by Coriolis effect caused by earth’s rotation.

Which features are associated with divergent boundaries?
sergiy2304 [10]

Features that are typical for the divergent plate boundaries are:

- <em>ocean ridges;</em>

Underwater mountain chains that are very long and are marking the border of the plates.

- <em>formation of new crust;</em>

Since the crust is very weakened and loose, the high temperature, pressure, and magma, are able to penetrate it and create new crust.

- <em>intense volcanic activity;</em>

The high amount of magma penetrating from the mantle layer is causing intense volcanic activity, thus the creating on new crust, and underwater mountain chains.
