The impact of Fohn winds is that it leads to rain shadows and more daytime warming.

<h3>What are Fohn winds?</h3>

These are dry and warm winds that are usually known to occur on the down side of mountainous areas.

The wind is usually known to be the cause of adiabatic air warming. The Foehn wind is usually descending.

<h3><u>Fohn wind</u></h3>

Fohn is a warm dry wind that occurs in connection with ridges. The term originates from the Alps but is now used in meteorology to denote this type of wind in general.

When the air is forced up a mountain slope, it carries with it water vapor which partially condenses and is emitted in the form of precipitation. When the air then drops again, the heating becomes greater than the previous cooling (due to the lower water content) and a hot, dry wind results.

Which type of plate boundary does the image show?
IceJOKER [234]

The image shows the Convergent plate boundary.

<u>Explanation: </u>

Convergent boundaries occur wherever the Earth’s tectonic plates move or collide toward each other. As the plates converge, the denser, thinner tectonic plate sub-ducts or dives beneath the lighter, thicker, more buoyant tectonic plate.

As shown in the picture, the plates are composed of rigid lithosphere consisting of the crust of the earth and the uppermost mantle. Movement of the plates is driven by convection in the asthenosphere and lower mantle, which are softer and warmer than the lithosphere and can flow on geologic timescales. Convection is fuelled by heat generated from  radioactive decay of elements in the Earth.

What are geographic concepts, and how are they used in answering geographic questions?
lesya692 [45]
<span>Geographic concepts are ideas which posit connections between humans in both natural and cultural settings, they are connected to space and proximity and offer geographers a lens in which to consider and present information that they conclude about the world. Based upon these conclusions that can be drawn from these concepts, geographic questions can be answered with evidence from how humans interact with the world.

What is the lens a geographer uses to investigate a geographic issue
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

place, space, and scale

Explanation:

A geographer investigate issues from the view point of location according to place, space and the scale.

The place is an element of location that describes the position or the domain of occurrence of issue.

Space refers the area occupied by a body or the area where an issue is domiciled.

The scale refers to the magnitude at which an issue is view or observed.

Geographers tends to synthesize and combine these different lenses to observe and investigate an issue. Almost everything on earth can be correlated spatially using these lenses.

Explanation:

During the last ice age, there was reduction in the amount of solar radiation that hits the surface of the erth. As a result of this, some continents experienced a glacial growth and cold climates and the geography was also affected.

North America was covered by ice and the mid-western North America, the southern boundary of the north polar ice cap during past ice ages is marked by Missouri and Ohio Rivers.
