Explain how temperature inversion create severe smog episodes (can draw a picture to describe as well)
shusha [124]
In most cases, as altitude increases, the air in the troposphere cools. Vertical mixing occurs as a result of warm air rising. However, a layer of cool air may form beneath a layer of warm air on occasion. Temperature/thermal inversion refers to this deviation from normal temperature.
When an inversion occurs, polluted areas (such as London and Donora PA) experience unhealthy air and an increase in smog because pollutants are trapped at ground level rather than circulating away.

qwelly [4]

The data on land ownership and tree growth and removal showed that B. Tree growth and removal was the greatest on private land.

<h3 /><h3>What is the relationship between land ownership and tree removal?</h3>

In the United States, those who plant trees on private land such as timber companies, have the highest rates of tree removal as well as tree growth.

The reason for this is because the trees planted are mostly planted so that the timber companies can cut them down and use for wood products.
