Answer and Explanation:
In case, the major ocean currents stops or slows down, the heat distribution on the Earth will be affected in the following ways:
- There would be quite significant climatic changes.
- It affects one of the major phenomena in the ocean , the thermohaline circulation of the ocean which is responsible for the supply of heat to the polar areas.
- Heat distribution is affected in such a way that keeps the warm water of the equatorial region remains in the same region and can not delivered to the polar areas.
- This phenomena results in more heat in the equatorial region and colder polar areas.
Answer:
It is able to create more landscape. It doesn't erupt very often.
Answer:
the last picture
Explanation:
The picture that shows the position of Earth during summer in South Carolina would be the last picture, I highlighted it in red below. South Carolina is located in North America. Summer is the hottest time of the year because it is when your location is closest to the sun. Which in the pictures provided the only one in which North America is closest to the sun is the last picture. Also the earth rotates on an inclined axis so pictures 2 and 3 would not be valid.
Answer:
Oceanic water have latent heat or special heat capacity.
Explanation:
- As oceans cover nearly 71% of the earth's surface and help in regulating the climate and weather patterns around places. They have specific heat and contain salt contents.
- They trap and absorb the carbon dioxide and thus are called carbon sinks. They take up a large amount of solar energy and heat slowly as compared to the land surfaces.
