Answer:

Sinkholes are just one of many forms of ground collapse, or subsidence. Land subsidence is a gradual settling or sudden sinking of the Earth’s surface owing to subsurface movement of earth materials. The principal causes of land subsidence are aquifer-system compaction, drainage of organic soils, underground mining, hydrocompaction, natural compaction, sinkholes, and thawing permafrost. Land subsidence can affect areas that are thousands of square miles in size.

Using complete sentences, discuss the North Atlantic Drift and its impact on climate. Compare two different climate regions at t
anyanavicka [17]

The North Atlantic Drift is a very powerful ocean current located in the North Atlantic Ocean. It is an extension of the Gulf Current. This current is warm, and as it moves towards the northeast, alongside the western coastline of Europe, it brings in much warmer and wetter climate. It makes the climate int he coastal regions much more stable, mild if you will, with pleasant summers, and mild winters, with high amounts of precipitation throughout the year.

If we compare it to other currents on the same latitudes, like the California Current, it is much different. The California Current is moving from the North Pacific, southwards alongside the western coats of North America. It is a clod current, and brings in colder and dryer weather in the parts that it affects.
