This scale rates an earthquake according to how much damage it causes.
Explanation:
The Mercalli Scale was invented by Giuseppe Mercalli in 1902. It is not considered that much of a scientific method to measure to measure strength of an earthquake.
Mercalli scale uses the observation of people who experienced the earthquake, to estimate the intensity. Its measurement is based on how much effect or damage it causes to the humans, objects, buildings, and other man made things.
It is not considered a good way to measure intensity of earthquakes because some witnesses may exaggerate the effects while some may consider it nominal.
Answer and Explanation:
The sub tropical belt of high pressure on Earth is characterized by:
- This belt lies about 30
- 35
in South and North of the equator. - This belt imparts high pressure to the Earth and is referred to as Horse latitudes.
- Monsoon in Asia are also governed by this belt.
The sub tropical belt having high pressure also helps to develop two zones of low pressure in North Pacific called as Aleutian low and North Atlantic called as Icelandic low.
While in North America, migratory cyclonic storms with low pressure creates the region for cyclonic and counter cyclonic activities resulting due to the variation s in temperature in the zone.
In Europe, high pressure sub tropical belt provides Europe with the heat of summers and makes the sub continent of Europe pleasant and hot.
