Answer:
Running water is the leading cause of soil erosion, because water is abundant and has a lot of power. Wind is also a leading cause of soil erosion because wind can pick up soil and blow it far away. Activities that remove vegetation, disturb the ground, or allow the ground to dry are activities that increase erosion.

Explanation:
describe two specific examples of devolution each from a different world region.
Answer:
Devolution, the transfer of power from a central government to subnational (e.g., state, regional, or local) authorities. Devolution usually occurs through conventional statutes rather than through a change in a country’s constitution; thus, unitary systems of government that have devolved powers in this manner are still considered unitary rather than federal systems, because the powers of the subnational authorities can be withdrawn by the central government at any time (compare federalism).

4. Explain the different forms of precipitation?
5. How are cyclones formed? How are they classified?
Answer:
The most common types of precipitation are rain, hail, and snow.
Tropical cyclones are like giant engines that use warm, moist air as fuel. That is why they form only over warm ocean waters near the equator. The warm, moist air over the ocean rises upward from near the surface. Because this air moves up and away from the surface, there is less air left near the surface.
They are classified as follows: Tropical Depression: A tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds of 38 mph (33 knots) or less. Tropical Storm: A tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds of 39 to 73 mph (34 to 63 knots). Hurricane: A tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds of 74 mph (64 knots) or higher.

How is it possible for the oceans to
have landforms?
Answer:
Oceans have landforms because of volcanic activity.
Explanation:
Oceans are dominated by water, but they are not exclusively covered with water on their surface, but there are also a lot of landforms. The landforms are small in the percentage of the total area, but nevertheless, they can be found in varying sizes and shapes. The reason why oceans have landforms is the volcanic activity.
When it comes to landforms that are located near the edges of the oceans, they tend to be created because of subduction zones. Here we have a rise of magma from the mantle and the creation of volcanic island arcs, like in the case of the Japanese islands. When it comes to landforms that are found deep into the ocean and far away from plate boundaries, the cause is hot spot volcanism. This volcanism occurs above places where there is higher than usual activity in the mantle, and it is such a powerful activity that it breaks through the crust and manifests itself on the surface. An example of this type of landforms is the Hawaii Islands.

On rocks
Answer:
Explanation:
Carbonation is another type of chemical weathering. Carbonation is the mixing of water with carbon dioxide to make carbonic acid. This type of weathering is important in the formation of caves. Dissolved carbon dioxide in rainwater or in moist air forms carbonic acid, and this acid reacts with minerals in rocks.

According to the geologic time scale, how is the most recent eon subdivided?
Answer:
The most recent eon is subdivided into three eras and eleven periods.
Explanation:
The geological time scale has been constructed so that it can help in better research and understanding of the past, as well as making it easier to distinguish the past and its characteristics at a certain time. There are larger and smaller divisions in the geologic time scale, with the eon being the largest unit, followed by era, and then period.
The most recent eon is the Paherozoic, starting from 542 million years ago and still going on. It is subdivided into three eras and eleven periods so far. The three eras are:

If globes are better at showing the Earth accurately, why do we still use maps?
Answer:
Even though globes are showing Earth more accurately, the maps are still used because they are more practical.
Explanation:
Earth is generally shown with two methods, one being the maps (map projections) and the other being globes. Both are used and will be used, as both have several advantages, but also several disadvantages. Despite globes being closer and more accurate in their representation of Earth, the maps are still used because they are much more practical.
The globes show Earth very close to its true form, though they are made as a ball, not as an ellipsoid. Anyhow, the globes don't have distortions of areas, so the sizes and locations are accurate on them. On the other hand, globes are highly impractical because of their shape, as they are don't often fit in standard backpacks or bags, and can easily be broken or damaged. Also, we can not see the entire Earth at any moment, so it is hard to make comparisons by using them.
The maps, on the other side, do have inaccuracies, mostly by having distortions, be it around the Equator or around the poles. Despite this, they have a relatively good accuracy that in most cases is enough for practical usage. Also, their form and weight make them easy to use, move from place to place, and the entire world can be seen at the same time, thus they are very practical when it comes to making comparisons.

What impact occurs when air is accelerating rapidly on the Jet Stream?
Answer:
When prolonged periods of severe weather strike, two things often get the blame these days: climate change and the jet stream. Many have expressed concerns that the rapidly melting Arctic is now disturbing the jet stream, bringing more frequent bouts of wild weather. But potentially even more powerful changes are afoot in the tropics – and the consequences could be severe.
The northern hemisphere’s jet stream is a current of fast-moving air encircling the globe from west to east in the middle latitudes – the zone between the baking tropics and the freezing Arctic. The strongest winds are about 10km high, near the altitudes at which planes fly, but the bottom of the jet can reach all the way down to the ground, forming the prevailing westerly winds familiar to many. The southern hemisphere’s counterpart is what gives rise to the Roaring Forties – similarly treacherous winds between latitudes 40 and 50 degrees.
The jet forms a relatively sharp dividing line between the warm tropical and cold polar air masses. The strongest winds are concentrated in a band several hundred kilometres wide. But this band is not fixed. It meanders and snakes its way around the globe, sometimes touching the edge of the tropics and at other times scraping the polar regions.

Churches urged to provide sanctuary as extreme weather bites
As a result, the jet can have a wide array of impacts across the hemisphere. If it passes over your location, expect to be repeatedly bombarded by the whirling storms that are carried along by it. As a recent example, the severe flooding in the north of England in November 2019 arose in part from a shift of the jet, which put the UK right in the middle of a region where storms tend to grow.
If the jet shifts to pass north of you, you’ll find yourself under the warm, dry zone of the atmosphere which lies south of the jet. This brings generally settled and pleasant weather in summer, but can set the scene for droughts and heatwaves. And if the jet moves south instead, you’ll be on its cold polar side, so you’d better hope this doesn’t happen too much during winter.
Weather worries
The jet has always varied – and has always affected our weather patterns. But now climate change is affecting our weather too. As I explore in my latest book, it’s when the wanderings of the jet and the hand of climate change add up that we get record-breaking heatwaves, floods and droughts – but not freezes.
The coldest weeks of any given winter will occur when the jet brings masses of cold air directly from the polar regions. But severe though this may feel, records show that similar events in past decades were even colder than they are now. While the jet is largely doing the same as it always has, the planet-heating greenhouse gases we’ve added to our atmosphere mean that invasions of polar air these days are just that bit milder.
Melting ice in the Arctic is causing colder air to travel southwards

The flip side, of course, is that when the jet moves north in summer, bringing warm air from the south, we often have to endure temperatures beyond anything in living memory.
It is clear and well understood how climate change and the jet can combine like this to cause truly extreme weather events. But whether climate change is directly changing the jet’s behaviour is a much harder question to answer.
Some have suggested that the rapidly warming Arctic is weakening the jet, by reducing the temperature contrast between the tropical and polar air to either side of it. As a result, the jet meanders more to the north and south, and these meanders can remain fixed over one location for longer – as happened when the Beast from the East placed much of northern Europe under a bitter chill.
There are certainly some interesting ideas here, but many still do not find the logic compelling, and more convincing evidence from observations and computer models will be needed for these theories to become widely accepted.
Scientists are however increasingly confident that important changes are afoot in the tropics. Driven by the vast quantities of energy pouring in from the sun directly overhead, these are the great powerhouses of Earth’s climate. Indeed, the power of the tropics is evident in the worldwide weather disruption caused by El Nino events – subtle increases or decreases in temperatures in the equatorial Pacific Ocean, that in turn disturb the jet stream.
Over the past few years, it has become apparent that at high altitudes, the Earth’s tropical regions are heating up more quickly than the rest of the world. At least partly because of this, the tropical regions of the atmosphere have been widening, expanding ever so slightly away from the equator, and impinging more on the jet stream.

A fact is a pragmatic truth, a statement that can, at least in theory, be checked and confirmed. Facts are often contrasted with opinions and beliefs, statements which are held to be true, but are not amenable to pragmatic confirmation.The word fact derives from the Latin Factum, and was first used in English with the same meaning: "a thing done or performed", a use that is now obsolete. The common usage of, "something that has really occurred or is the case", dates from the middle of the sixteenth century. Fact is sometimes used as synonymous with truth or reality, as distinguishable from conclusions or opinions. This use is found in such phrases Matter of fact, and "... not history, nor fact, but imagination."
