Milankovitch cycles refer to

Geography
1 answer:
RUDIKE [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:    Changes in Earth-Sun relationships, namely Earth's orbit around the sun, axial rotation, and axial tilt

Explanation:  Milankovitch cycles refer to changes in the Earth-Sun relations because of the earth's orbital eccentricity that the Earth circles the Sun. The shape of the Earth's path around the sun is eccentricity, due to the constant change of the orbital form within the limits of 0 to 5% ellipticity. In addition, these cycles occur not only due to eccentricity, but also due to axial rotation and axial tilt. All this has an employer of climate change on Earth due to the change in the amount of sunlight. These changes should be understood as very long-term, for example, the Ice Age cycle is associated with changes in the amount of sunlight, and due to changes of Earth's orbit. This means they are important as long-term changes.

Ludmilka [50]

Answer: 120 - 240 kilometers per hour

Explanation:

Jet streams are narrow, fast flowing, air currents that are in the atmospheres of certain planets, which includes the Earth. Jet streams are air currents that are placed very high above the Earth and form where there are big differences in temperature in the atmosphere.

The jet stream has winds that blow up to 120 - 240 kilometers per hour which can greatly influence the impact of weather patterns over a continent.

Where along the 48 states is plate collision currently taking place?
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Sometimes an entire ocean closes as tectonic plates converge, causing blocks of thick continental crust to collide. A collisional mountain range forms as the crust is compressed, crumpled, and thickened even more. The effect is like a swimmer putting a beach ball under his or her belly—the swimmer will rise up considerably out of the water. The highest mountains on Earth today, the Himalayas, are so high because the full thickness of the Indian subcontinent is shoving beneath Asia.

The Appalachian Mountains formed during a collision of continents 500 to 300 million years ago. In their prime they probably had peaks as high as those in the modern zone of continental collision stretching from the Himalayas in Asia to the Alps in Europe. But over the past 300 million years, the Appalachians have eroded to more modest heights.
