Answer:
1. Wind bounces and rolls sand along the ground, a process called saltation.
2. Sediment carried by the wind will drop to the ground when the wind's velocity decreases.
3. The force of the wind pushes particles up the windward slope of the dune as it moves.
4. The force of gravity allows particles to slide down the leeward slope of a dune as it moves.
Explanation:
Saltation is the process which involves the movement of the particles by the force of wind or water. The wind or the water removes the particles and carry them forward. Materials like pebbles and stones get carried away by the flow of water. The large particles get settled in the river bed.
Answer:
The altitude, latitude and availability of sunlight and water.
Explanation:
- There are various types of climatic effects that help geographers identify the plant life in a particular place as the altitude, latitude, and duration of sunshine, cloudiness, and amount of rainfall.
- There are certain types of biogeographical realms or ecozones on earth that influence the type of natural vegetation and are governed by their respective climates.
- Therese regions are also called as biomes. These regions are broadly classified by the type of biota and that is dependent on the availability of water and sunlight.
Answer:
Atmospheric temperature is the graduation of heat that takes place in a specific place on the planet. The higher the heat, the higher the temperature, and conversely, the lower the heat, the lower the temperature.
High temperatures influence the climate by lowering the ectopascal pressure and increasing the humidity of the environment, since it evaporates the water that is on the surface, generating clouds and eventual rains. The opposite occurs with cold temperatures: ectopascal pressure rises, and humidity decreases.
