Geography

Aleksandr [31]3 years ago

Answer:

The flow velocity, or speed of flow, can influence the shape and rate of erosion of a river system. The cross-sectional shape of a river dictates how much friction will impact the flow of water within a river. Finally, the sediment load, or the amount of rocks and soil in the river, impacts its flow velocity and shape.The velocity of a river is determined by many factors, including the shape of its channel, the gradient of the slope that the river moves along, the volume of water that the river carries and the amount of friction caused by rough edges within the riverbed. Access to a fresh water supply is affected by the following factors: Climate – low levels of rainfall and high temperatures lead to water deficits . When rainfall is low, there is less water available. When temperatures are high, water evaporates and so there is less available to use.

Describe the major physical and human features of the location where you live, such as the landscape, weather, and population. W
Ne4ueva [31]

I live in the Republic of Macedonia, Tikvesh area, town of Negotino. The area that falls in the borders of the municipality in which I live has climate that is very variable. The summers are heavily influenced by the Mediterranean climate, so they are hot and dry, the winters are heavily influenced by the continental air masses, so they are cold and dry, while the spring and autumn are moderate and are also the rainiest periods of the year. The precipitations varies a lot from year to year, and it can be anywhere from 250 to 750 mm. The landscape is dominated by a valley, naturally being a grassland, but now heavily used for agriculture, mostly wine trees. The eastern side is bordered by a mountain of slightly over 1,000 m, while the southern part is bordered by a volcanic plateau. The population is slightly more than 20,000, and it has been like that for around two decades now. The main reason why there haven't been significant changes is that the birthrates have dropped, while the life expectancy has increased, so the population is gradually aging.

In this description I have used three geographic themes, location, human/environment interactions, and place.
