Humid subtropical climate

Individually, snowflakes are diminutive, harmless ice crystals. However, when these seemingly innocent snowflakes cluster together in immense formations known as snow, they sustain a powerful ability to impact our world. Snowy weather has significantly affected the survival and lifestyle of nature and living things. In brief, snow poses large threats to the health, comfort, and well-being of humans, alters the process, features, and survival of plants, as well as interfere with the normal…

Topic: Not Too Late for Polar Bears Specific purpose: To inform the class about the Arctic is warming too. How will Polar Bears survive by 2050? Central idea: Without Polar Bears, other animals couldn’t survive. Polar Bears kill other animals so that smaller animals can eat to survive. Smaller animals do this by eating the leftover scraps from polar bears. Introduction: On August 1881 a naturalist by the name of John Muir sailing off the coast of Alaska discovered a large mammal. He said they…

Climate Change Cause connected to Humans Extreme heat waves, devastating droughts, and resulting storms are examples of climate change cause now being connected to humans. According to a 2014 report from the United Nations (www.un.org), 75 percent of these heat events can be attributed to some sort of human activity. The United Nations report claims that there is only a five percent chance that the events of global warming seen in the last 65 years happened due to natural causes and that it is…

million every year (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration par. 2). Climate change is a long term anxiety provoking issue, and the anxiety of having long term issues is difficult to deal with, so we must learn to face that anxiety and convert it into action. People often take action against short term stressors, but when the issue is long term, many push the problem to the side for a while. I convert my anxiety of climate change into action by evaluating different structures to limit…

According to Edith Widder, “Our biggest challenges for the ocean and for the planet are problems of perception. People need to understand that species extinctions, habitat destruction, ocean acidification, and pollution are all chipping away at the resilience of the thin layer of life that sustains us on Spaceship Earth.” I will be discussing what ocean acidification is, how do the CO2 get into oceans, and what are biological impacts. Ocean Acidification is a reduction in ocean pH due to the…

The overall climate of the Appalchian region can greatly vary depending on which area is being focused on. In most areas, the climate is temperate and humid under 2000ft of elevation, and gets colder as the elevation increases. Also, the climate is temperate as the mountains are in very close proximity to the Atlantic Ocean. Furthermore, fog is usually present year-round because cold waters from the Labrador Current collide with warm waters from the Gulf Stream. Moreover, the air pushes the…

Agriculture, in 2015, an average of 795 pounds per harvest acre of crops were harvested. At that rate and without a spring replanting season, crops would be used up quickly. Soil would eventually become unusable because there would be no changes in climate or crop rotation to rejuvenate the soil and grow new crops. The wild game would be hunted to extinction. Fawns, which are grazing animals, have less chance of survival in fall because of colder weather and plants becoming…

4a. The Canadian Arctic: Geography, ecology, people and climate The Arctic is often defined using political, climatic, biological zoning and varies greatly amongst Arctic nations. Using geophysical definition as the land and sea, north of the Arctic Circle and which experiences polar day from April to September, and polar night from October to February. Overall, Arctic climate varies greatly by location with annual mean surface temperatures of 4C in Reykjavic Iceland, to -28 C at the crest of…

Meteorologist/Geographer : Shancil Shepherd The average temperature in temperate deciduous forests is 50°F (10°C). Summers are mild, and average about 70°F (21°C), while winter temperatures are often well below freezing. The land has high levels of precipitation, humidity and contain a variety of deciduous trees. temperate deciduous forests are the second-rainiest biome. The average yearly…

Climate is reserved for regional patterns of temperature and precipitation that persist for decades and centuries.Global climate is maintained by the sun it keeps the earth's average temperature of 60°F. This is a good temperature to support plant life and maintain reservoirs of drinking water. Although the Global Climate is raising fast and this is causing global climate patterns to change, this is not the only reason. Global patterns may last for ten years like the periods in the ice ages ,or…
