Geography
1 answer:
HACTEHA [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Mass wasting may be explained as the movement of loose, unconsilidatwd, soil or earth materials down a slope. Two major forces which controls the level or degree of mass wastibg is frictional and Gravitational forces. Frictional forces oppose movement of materials down slope while Gravitational force aids the movement of materials. The midpoint of these tow forces is marked by the ANGLE OF REPOSE, which is the maximum slope angle these loose materials can maintain. At greater angles, slope is steeper and gravity wins, while at more gentle slope angles. Friction wins.

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Answer are written below:

Explanation:

1) It is very important to have a universal method established to guide archaeological excavations because you have to planned out everything in order to find a method or a way to work through the study.

2)  Understanding our past is important to our future because studying history enables us to understand the world better and the past gives us courage and protects us from harm.

3) It would be more challenging to be a prehistoric archaeologist as compared to historical archaeologist because historic archaeology is easier to study due to the presence in written form whereas  Prehistoric archaeology is very difficult to study due to no written records are present.

4) I will work as an academic archaeologist as compared to cultural resource management (CRM) archaeologist because academic archaeologists are active researchers in their field which also published their work in the books, journals, and popular publications.

The impact that glaciers will have on the Earth if warming trends do not change.
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Glaciers act as reservoirs of water that persist through summer. Continual melt from glaciers contributes water to the ecosystem throughout dry months, creating perennial stream habitat and a water source for plants and animals. The cold runoff from glaciers also affects downstream water temperatures. Many aquatic species in mountainous environments require cold water temperatures to survive. Some aquatic insects--fundamental components of the food web--are especially sensitive to stream temperature and cannot survive without the cooling effects of glacial melt water. Such changes in stream habitat may also adversely impact native trout and other keystone salmon species.
