“Climate change and global warming talk about to an increase of usual global temperature. Natural disasters and human actions are believe to be the main reasons for the happening of average global temperatures increase. This is happen because of increase in ‘greenhouse’ gases such as Carbon Dioxide. A warming planet therefore leads to a revolution in climate which can affect weather in different behaviours.” Climate change mostly happens by the natural cycle of earth however as of now human exercises

Precipitation Effect on Evolution Introduction Precipitation can have rapid and lasting effects on an ecosystem and evolution of the life forms throughout the region. Too much precipitation can cause flooding, eroding shorelines, and rising sea levels. The effects of such activity wash away food sources and ultimately changes the way the various life forms will behave and survive. If weather patterns change and eliminate or drastically reduce food sources and habitats, it can bring various elements

Since humans began to use coal, oil, and natural gasses and other fossil fuels as main power sources, there have been major changes to the climate; these changes are mostly damaging to the environment and have caused irreversible affects that have damaged the environment. One of these changes is global warming. Global warming is one the main affects

A significant reason as to why I believe floods has a greater impact on Australia than droughts is because floods cause significant damage to farm land which has the potential to lead to serious agricultural consequences including loss of income, contamination of topsoil, crop loss and damage to harvests, as a result, causes great financial burden to farmers. Despite this, droughts also endure the potential to cause significant destruction of farmland including soil erosion, however, floods are recognised

Tropical Grassland (Savanna) A savannah can get so hot rounds dry up and the grass can catch fire. There will not be much food, water, or shade. If you are lucky it will rain up to 18 inches while you’re there. However if you go during the winter it won’t be freezing or hot, but it will still be dry. You won’t see many landforms but there will be dried valley’s and hills. Acacia trees are a main food source for giraffes. Leopards are one of the top predators in the Savannah. The Grass and bushes

This lab showed many results, some which were surprising. In the first experiment, wet sand was cooler than the dry sand in the beginning but heated up at a faster rate than the dry sand, according to Table 1. The range of the wet sand was 11 degrees compared to the range of the dry sand which was 6 degrees. However, it was expected that the wet sand would heat up at a slower rate than the dry sand because water retains heat longer than other substances. Despite the wet sand heating up at a faster

California needs to regulate the use of groundwater and make a law, groundwater can be very dangerous and has many downsides. Farmers should try to save and use other sources of water and overall stop the use of groundwater. If we keep using ground water at this paste then we will eventually run out and the ground will continue to decrease. Making a law will allow the ground to renew itself. California needs to limit the amount of groundwater by making a law to force farmers to try to save the
