It is covered with a biological community of vegetation composed of
mainly cone-bearing needle or scale-leaved evergreen trees. It is called
"land of little sticks". The forest trees in the taiga grow as tall
as the highest latitudes of other trees in other places.
Answer:
<u>Use of Triangulation, and interaction of the three circles.</u>
Explanation:
- To determine the epicenter of the earthquakes the scientist study the patterns of the waves and use this method to find the exact location of the earthquakes.
- As the earthquake has P and S waves that are released with force the distance that these waves travel are calculated with the distance of the radio waves that is reflected from least three different locations, thus it's named as triangulation all three sides.<u>
</u>
- <u>About three seismographs are used to locate these waves, along with the use of the GIS technology prediction of the faults and the future occurrence of earthquakes of done.</u>
Answer:
The direction of rivers are usually expressed with respect to the directions we are familiar with: North, South, East or West.
A river has an origin, usually at a higher latitude and ends at the sea or ocean or a large water body. Gravity is the driving force for river flow. Hence, we gauge the ‘direction’ the water is going to flow for any river.
If we were going to get more technical, flow in rivers and streams are measured for their streamflow, which is the amount of water passing through some infinitesmal volume, i.e a point over time. The velocity of the water is determined using acoustic/Doppler based instruments, which will give the local direction of the flow of the river at the measured point along with the velocity.
Hope the answer helps!
