A geochemical cycle that cycles material by mantle convection, subduction, and seafloor spreading
Answer:
Plate tectonics cause earthquakes
Explanation:
Earthquakes are caused by the movement of plate tectonics. Where there is a fault line there is plate tectonics, and when that fault line moves the plates shift and cause the earth to shake AKA an earthquake.
Hope this helps! :D
Answer:
a. Milder weather in the summer but colder weather in the winter
Explanation:
- The oceanic climate of the marine climate s dominated by fewer temperature extremes. Having a monthly mean temperature below 22 degrees. As precipitation is evenly distributed through the seasons.
- In the polewards type of climate dominant precipitation in the form of snowfall is more frequent they have a mild west coast around the middle latitudes. All depending on the type of land and ocean surface.
- Mostly the presence of milder climates around the world and is prevalent in most parts of Oceania.
The air masses that have the greatest influence on weather conditions in the Midwestern United States are continental polar.
This air masses come from the north, they are heavy, low, cold and predominantly dry air masses, and are most intense in the colder part of the year. But they are not the only one, even though they are the dominant ones, the tropical warm and wet climate also has a big influence, especially in the warmer part of the year, and it's influence is gradually increasing.
Hi there
Facts about the Great Plains
1) They support one of the lowest population densities in the United States
2) Occupy around 500,000 miles of west-central North America
3) Millions of American bison roamed the Great Plains before their near-extermination by market hunters in the late 1800s
4) Through dedicated conservation efforts, bison have made an impressive comeback both on public and private lands.
5) Along wildlife other than bison were pronghorn, elk, mule deer, white-tailed deer, etc.
6) Cast in the rainshadow of the Rockies, the Great Plains harbor the greatest remaining expanses of prairie, a highly-endangered habitat, in the country.
7) While many presume the Great Plains to be relentlessly level, the province actually contains much topographic variety.
8) There are island mountain ranges, especially on the Missouri Plateau---the Bears Paw Mountains, the Sweetgrass Hills, the Black Hills, for example.
9) The Great Plains of interior North America constitute one of the largest grassland expanses in the world
10) For thousands of years, human cultures as varied as the Kiowa, the Blackfeet, the Spanish and the Americans have explored, hunted, settled and fought over these vast spaces.
