Answer:
The Continental Divide is a ridge of high ground that runs irregularly north and south through the Rocky Mountains and separates eastward-flowing from westward-flowing streams.
Explanation:
Answer:
explained below.
Explanation:
b) Urbanization decreases the lag time because the loss of the rainfall decrease as the water absorbed by the ground decreases and water reaches to the river very quickly.
c) In urbanization the runoff occurs for small period of time because there is no hindrance in the flow of the rainfall so the runoff reaches very quickly to the water body.
d) Intense rainfall in urban area often experience the flash flood condition because there no absorption of water by the ground, trees are less so which does not lead to perception of water by leaves of the tree hence all the rainfall is basically converted into runoff and city does not have system to act on the situation which lead to flash flood condition.
A creep is a slow downward progression of rock and soil on a slope of terrain.
A rockfall is a mass of loose rocks that fall down a slope.
A landslide is a mass of earth and/or rocks that have collapsed from a mountain or cliff.
A mudflow is an avalanche of big amounts mud.
Answer: projection.
Explanation:
A map projection is one of the various techniques used to flatten a spherical globe's surface into a plane sheet to create a map.
This process is a mathematical process because transformation of the locations from the surface of the globe is done by considering the latitudes and longitudes of locations into the locations on a plane.
Hence, a mathematical process for transferring locations from a globe to a flat map is a <u>projection.</u>
