The southern part of the United States is heavily influenced by the sea/ocean and the wind patters that occur because of it. The warm waters that surround the region are making it more stable temperature-wise and the weather is warm and wet for big portions of the year. The precipitation is high as well. But this also brings in problems in the shape of the hurricanes, tornadoes, intense big rainstorms, and floods.
When air in contact with the ocean<span> is at a different temperature than the sea surface, heat </span>transfer<span> by conduction takes place. The </span>ocean<span> also absorbs and stores </span>energy <span>from the sun, and when precipitation falls, it releases heat </span>energy<span> into the atmosphere.</span>
Answer:
Intensity depends on the distance form the ground and source of energy.
Explanation:
- Earth quake that has an intensity of 1.5 on the Richter scale can be detected only through the seismograph. The earthquake with an intensity of 0 levels on the Richter scale that is below micro will not be felt or rarely felt in scale.
- This can be defied by the Richter scale formula of R=log(IcIn), Ic is the intensity and In is the intensity if the standards earthquake. Hence the difference will be R2−R1=log(I2I1)
The air masses that have the greatest influence on weather conditions in the Midwestern United States are continental polar.
This air masses come from the north, they are heavy, low, cold and predominantly dry air masses, and are most intense in the colder part of the year. But they are not the only one, even though they are the dominant ones, the tropical warm and wet climate also has a big influence, especially in the warmer part of the year, and it's influence is gradually increasing.
Answer:
Estados Unidos posee frontera terrestre exclusivamente con dos países: Canadá al norte, y México al sur.
Así, la frontera con Canadá parte desde el Océano Pacífico y llega hasta el Océano Atlántico, recorriendo una longitud de 8.891 kilómetros, mientras que la frontera con México también es bioceánica, y recorre una longitud de 3.145 kilómetros en total.
La principal diferencia radica en la protección que Estados Unidos da a cada frontera: así, la frontera con Canadá se encuentra escasamente vigilada, mientras que la frontera con México, por el contrario, se encuentra fuertemente vigilada y fortificada. Esto es así, principalmente, debido a que Canadá es un país que no supone una potencial fuente de inmigrantes hacia los Estados Unidos, mientras que México sí lo es, tanto por sí mismo como por ser un lugar de paso que conecta a los Estados Unidos con el resto de América Latina.
