not sure if this helps but I hope it does
sorry its so long
To date erosion scientists have failed to address — or have addressed inadequately — some of the ‘big questions’ of our discipline. For example, where is erosion occurring? Why is it happening, and who is to blame? How serious is it? Who does it affect? What should be the response? Can we prevent it? What are the costs of erosion? Our inability or reluctance to answer such questions damages our credibility and is based on weaknesses in commonly-used approaches and the spatial and temporal scales at which much research is carried out. We have difficulty in the recognition, description and quantification of erosion, and limited information on the magnitude and frequency of events that cause erosion. In particular there has been a neglect of extreme events which are known to contribute substantially to total erosion. The inadequacy and frequent misuse of existing data leaves us open to the charge of exaggeration of the erosion problem (a la Lomborg).
Models need to be developed for many purposes and at many scales. Existing models have proved to be of limited value, in the real as opposed to the academic world, both because of problems with the reliability of their results, and difficulties (with associated costs) of acquiring suitable data. However, there are some positive signs: models are now being developed for purposes including addressing questions of off-site impacts and land-use policy. Cheap, reliable and technically simple methods of erosion assessment at the field scale are needed. At the global scale, an up-date of GLASOD based on a scientific approach is urgent so that we are at least able to identify erosion ‘hotspots’.
In terms of explanation of erosion, the greatest need is for a full recognition of the importance of socio-economic drivers. The accession of new countries to the EU with different economic and land-use histories emphasises this need. Too often we have left people, especially the farmers, out of the picture. Our approach could be characterised as ‘data-rich and people-poor’.

An increase in the need for teachers as a result of more children in the Ohio educational system is the latent function.
Option: (A)
<u>
Explanation:
</u>
-
Owing to the scheme implemented by the Ohio state government, it is obvious that more parents would be motivated to give birth to birth to more number of children in the next three years.
- As some of the consequences of the scheme implemented, the population of the state would increase considerably in the next three years. As there would be more more children born in the next three years, the newly added population would be more or less in the same age group.
- Thus, among the needs that would be required to be fulfilled owing to the growth in the population, the need for teachers would be latent and inevitable.

There are two ways of interaction of Mecca with the Bedouin tribes. One was that it was situated on the way which was used for the trade caravans and nomadic tribes protected the trade routes.
