What type of projection would be best for a world map of population density? why?

Alex_Xolod [135]

The best type of map for displaying or representing population density would be choropleth maps. These maps are excellent for displaying numerical values on a map. They display data in shades of a single color with the lighter colors representing smaller values and the more intense colors representing higher numerical values.

Evaluate the impact of EL Nino conditions on the farming activities

qwelly [4]

El Niño is warming of the sea surface temperature of the Pacific Ocean. Extreme flooding,

drought, lack of potable water for livestock and domestic use, food insecurity and market

imbalance are associated with El Niño and La Niña in Ethiopia. Drought following El Niño

caused 50 to 90% crop failure, in the eastern parts of Ethiopia. El Niño episodes are detected

using different statistical indices such as Oceanic Nino Index (ONI), Agricultural Stress Index

System (ASIS) and the Southern Oscillation Index (SOI), with magnitude ranging from weak to

strong. Identifying the El Niño and La Niña seasons it is very important to adopt suitable

adaptation strategies, which can resolve and/or reduce the negative impacts. Early warning and

immediate support to the impacted areas have been carried out to minimize risks from El Niño

animal feed for livestock from other areas has been transported to the vulnerable areas. Planting

early maturing and drought resistant crops, supplementary irrigation, early waning information

on weather and climate have been exercised as climate change adaptation strategies, early

warning mechanisms by the government of Ethiopia. El Niño and La Niña are natural

phenomena; however, it is necessary to study the occurrence and distribution of El Niño and La

Niña episodes to enable early warning and identify suitable adaptation strategies and policy

implications in the country.

Oceanography<br> What is a Hot Spot? How does it contribute to biological diversity in the oceans?

Feliz [49]

1. A hot spot is basically a mantle plum. This is a place in the upper mantle that has much higher activity, higher temperature and pressure. This contributes to the mantle plum to be able to propel magma through the crust much more easily and manifest itself on the surface.

The hot spots create volcanic activity. Unlike the other places that have volcanic activities though, the hot spots are not related with the pate boundaries, but instead they can appear pretty much everywhere. It is more common that a hot spot is located in the interior of a plate, rather than on its boundary or near a boundary.

The hot spots mange to create the most massive volcanoes on Earth. They are very large, very high, but tend to not be steep. They are also volcanoes that are very active, often nonstop with decades or even more.

2. The hot spots manage to create volcanoes, often in the middle of the oceans. As the magma reaches the ocean floor, because it is in such a high amount, it manages to lift up much more oceanic crust that another type of volcano. As the oceanic crust is lifted upwards it comes out over the sea level. Because it occupies such a large area and such a large pieces of crust is alleviated, around the volcanic islands the ocean is actually very shallow.

Because the ocean is shallow around the hot spot volcanoes, it means that the sunlight can penetrate to the bottom or almost to the bottom of the ocean. This provides conditions for photosynthesis, sot he producers thrive. The producers are the basis for all ecosystems, so when they thrive, they attract consumers. Little by little, more and more consumers of different trophic levels are attracted, so more and more organisms start to live in those places. Apart from being a good place for the marine life to develop, the hot pots are also isolated when ti comes to the conditions they provide, so not just that there is a big biodiversity, but there is also a big diversification.

henry ford was famous for paying his workers higher wages than other manufactures of his time. Compare Fords strategy to the wag

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Ford manufactured vehicles which was bought by the majority which gave him a higher return of investment. Also, his assembly line made the manufacturing of vehicles much faster than others. Thus, the more cars he sold, the more profit he gets.
