Geography

A spit  could form from a rocky headland where prevailing winds would blow at an angle to the rocky headland, gradually depositing sand and shingle at that place.

A spit is a permanent landform resulting from marine deposition and wind deposition. It is usually a long and narrow accumulation of sand or shingle with one joined to the land and the other end projecting at   a narrow angle out into the sea.

Salt marshes sometimes form on the sheltered side of a spit.

If you traveled to a location 10 degrees north of the Equator, where would you be?
jonny [76]

Answer:1111 Km.

The circumference of the earth is about 40,000 kilometers and the earth has a total of 360 degrees.

If you want to know what 10 degrees is equal to, use a simple proportional equation.

10 X

------ = -------

360 40,000 km

Then, solve for X.... (cross multiply)

Qué nombre recibe la incapacidad de una población para reponerse después de un desastre
mixer [17]

Answer:

Vulnerabilidad.

Explanation:

El término vulnerabilidad es una extensión de los enfoques convencionales de la pobreza. Se reconoció que la pobreza por sí sola no puede describir y explicar adecuadamente los problemas de desarrollo y las crisis sociales en las naciones, especialmente cuando estos no surgen de cuestiones puramente económicas, sino también climatológicas o de otra índole. La vulnerabilidad no solo significa deficiencia y necesidades insatisfechas, sino una condición social que se caracteriza por inseguridad e indefensión ante eventos externos. Las personas y poblaciones vulnerables están expuestas a choques y factores estresantes y tienen dificultades para afrontarlos. La vulnerabilidad debe entenderse como un proceso dinámico. Las personas afectadas pueden ser o volverse vulnerables de manera diferente según la situación. Las fases individuales de este proceso de vulnerabilidad van desde la vulnerabilidad básica (fase de afrontamiento o arreglo) a través de varios pasos intermedios hasta una catástrofe existencial, que se caracteriza por un colapso de la seguridad vital y la dependencia total de los afectados de las medidas de ayuda externa. Una hambruna es un ejemplo de tal colapso.
