Human Impact
Introduction to Human Impact
Human impact on the environment carries many negative longterm consequences.
Consumption, altering habitats, and carbon emissions are all human activities destroying the natural world.
Habitat Alteration
Habitat alteration is changing earth's natural compositing by destroying habitats to build upon or fragmenting habitats for roads and access. This is the biggest threat to biodiversity.
Pollution
Pollution is the contamination of Earth's atmosphere and surface (land and bodies of water).
Disposal of human waste results in land pollution, while burning fossil fuels results in air pollution. Land and air pollution affect water contamination.
Deforestation
Deforestation is the removal and destruction of forests.
Clear cutting completely removes all trees in an area for human consumption, such as building materials, paper products, etc.
Human Population Growth
The human population has continued to increase, which means human impact on the environment will increase as well.
Concerns include lack of space, food, and other resources, as well as disease outbreaks.
Acid Rain
Acid rain is caused by burning fossil fuels, which releases acidic gases into the atmosphere. The gases latch on to water molecules and the result is acid (low pH) rain.
Acid rain results in organism death and destruction of infrastructure.
Answer:
D. (1) low, (2) absorbs, D. The Poles are tilted most toward or away from the Sun on the Solstices
Explanation:
- Albedo plays a major role in the energy balance of the earth's surface, as it is defined as the rate of absorption of part of solar radiation. Albedo ranges from 0.2 for dark, rough soil surfaces, some of the values around to 0.5 show light soil, and snow has an albedo of 0.75
- Thus most of the solar radiation is absorbed by the soil particles there tectonic rate of sand and snow, in contrast, is very high as compared to the normal dull soil surface.
- The poles are slightly tilted due to the axial rotation of the earth and hence, away from the sun and the solstice that occurs is mostly of lower intensity. As solstice is defined by the declination of sun rays over the surface of the earth when the sun is directly overhead the noon.
