Two features of the earth's surface that influence climate are ocean currents and landforms.There are two large, circular ocean currents, one in each hemisphere. These currents move warm water f'om the equator to the north and south.Warm and cold ocean currents affect the climates of nearby ...
Across the stable density stratification of the abyssal ocean, deep dense water is slowly propelled upward by sustained, though irregular, turbulent mixing. The resulting mean upwelling determines large-scale oceanic circulation properties like heat and
What causes currents? How does the Milankovitch cycle affect climate change? What causes ocean salinity to increase? What causes prevailing winds? What causes a rainbow to form? What causes Brownian motion in colloids? How does the solar cycle work?
How would you explain the Cenozoic evolution of the North American Cordillera in terms that a nongeologist could readily understand? If plate tectonic movement did not exist, could there be metamorphism? Explain how plate positions and climate influenced the geographic distribu...
Besides reporting on different observations of events with anti-correlated waveforms, we reviewed previously proposed models. Both observations and models illustrate the presence of two different scenarios. On one side, there are true anti-repeaters, which affect the same fault or fault segment with ...

The Silk Road Economic Belt aims to build a land channel from the Pacific Ocean to the Baltic Sea by improving cross-border infrastructure and international trade and capital. Another component of the BRI is the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road which was proposed in October of 2013 when ...
