In World Geography you will examine people, places, and environments at local, regional, national, and international scales from the spatial and ecological perspectives of geography. You will learn the influence of geography on events of the past and present with emphasis on contemporary issues. A significant portion of the course centers around the physical processes that shape patterns in the physical environment; the characteristics of major landforms, climates, and ecosystems and their interrelationships; the political, economic, and social processes that shape cultural patterns of regions; types and patterns of settlement; the distribution and movement of the world population; relationships among people, places, and environments; and the concept of region. You will analyze how location affects economic activities in different economic systems. You will identify the processes that influence political divisions on the planet and analyze how different points of view affect the development of public policies. You will compare how cultures shape the characteristics of regions and analyze the impact of technology and human modifications on the physical environment. You will use problem-solving and decision-making skills to ask and answer geographic questions.
Almanacs can be used as references because they contain lots of important information in such varieties. They can include an astronomical calendar and a weather calendar.
The albedo is a measure of the reflectivity of the surface and thus is applied to the earth as a measure of the earth's energy potential when reflecting into space that has cooling impacts on the earth landscape.
<u>Thus the albedo of the land's surface is the function of the impact so the climate and the weather patterns on earth are like the earth's terrain is uneven so is the impact of the reflected from the surface as he white and the open places have a high albedo capacity as compared to the areas which are overt and are dense and dark. </u>
Due to the trees are scattered and tends to absorb the light that is emitted and they also have a great heat-absorbing capacity. The albedo of the coniferous trees is about 0.09 to 0.15, whereas that of the deciduous trees about of 0.15 to 0.18, hence is the lowest.
