They are brought from colder regions e.g. the North and South poles where ice caps are melting to give cold water. Currents are due to the effect of wind on the water.

Describe the problems caused by water scarcity in the Middle East. What are some of the strategies the region has taken to deal
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

The problems that the Middle East faces because of water scarcity are that the population is concentrated in very small areas, agriculture is on a low level, and the population growth is limited. Some of the strategies used for this problem are strictly controlled water supply, desalinization, and artificial rainfall.

Explanation:

e The Middle East is one of the poorest regions in the world when it comes to water supplies. This has caused numerous problems and even nowadays with the advancements of technology they are hard to solve. Because there are huge areas that don't have any water at all, the populations are usually very concetrated near the very few water supplies. The population growth is limited because there simply isn't enough water for large population growth, and agriculture is only possible in small areas, while it lacks in the majority of the region.

In order to solve some of these problems, the leaders have been coming up with some solutions. Israel has been using technology to produce rainfall, which has had excellent results. The water supply is heavily controlled and no one is allowed to overuse it. The biggest problem, water for drinking, has been solved by using the process of desalinization of the saline water.

As deltas are depositional features of fluvial processes, so blank are depositional features of eolian (wind) processes.
lina2011 [118]

The correct answer is - dunes.

The dunes, or sand dunes, are a relief forms that are formed by deposition of material. In the process of forming a dune, the responsibility goes to the eolian processes (wind processes). The wind has its own mechanical power to erode the rocks, but it also has the power to transport the material. The stronger the wind, the bigger the particles it can transport, and vice versa. When the wind is transporting a certain material, in the case of the dunes it will be sand particles, eventually it will start to lose on speed, and as it loses on speed, it loses on power, so the sand particles are starting to fall on the ground and deposit. s more and more sand particles are depositing, the dune starts to form, and it is growing bigger as more sand particles are falling on it.

The many volcanoes located along the edge of the Pacific Ocean make up the Ring of Fire. How does subduction play a role in the
sertanlavr [38]
<span>The most volcanically active belt on Earth is known as the Ring of Fire, a region of subduction zone volcanism surrounding the Pacific Ocean. Subduction zone volcanism occurs where two plates are converging on one another. One plate containing oceanic lithosphere descends beneath the adjacent plate, thus consuming the oceanic lithosphere into the earth's mantle. This on-going process is called subduction. As the descending plate bends downward at the surface, it creates a large linear depression called an oceanic trench. These trenches are the deepest topographic features on the earth's surface.

</span>
<span>The crustal portion of the subducting slab contains a significant amount of surface water, as well as water contained in hydrated minerals within the seafloor basalt. As the subducting slab descends to greater and greater depths, it progressively encounters greater temperatures and greater pressures which cause the slab to release water into the mantle wedge overlying the descending plate. Water has the effect of lowering the melting temperature of the mantle, thus causing it to melt. The magma produced by this mechanism varies from basalt to andesite in composition. It rises upward to produce a linear belt of volcanoes parallel to the oceanic trench, as exemplified in the above image of the Aleutian Island chain. The chain of volcanoes is called an island arc. If the oceanic lithosphere subducts beneath an adjacent plate of continental lithosphere, then a similar belt of volcanoes will be generated on continental crust. </span>
