Landform

and Greenland hold most of the world’s glaciers, but glaciers are found on every continent on earth. Thousands of years ago, glaciers were found in Minnesota, and as they retreated they left behind large amounts of glacial meltwater and various landforms that are still here today.…

team in 1983. The cultural and spiritual significance of this landform traces back to almost 20,000 years ago. Also, the cultural and spiritual aspects of this landform is extremely vital to the vast existence of the landform itself and the people who inhabit it. The primary and original owners of this landform region are the Djaru and Kija people, who are Aboriginal. The Aboriginals who inhabit the Bungle Bungles benefit from the landform too. Australia’s indigenous people have adapted to the…

A belief that each individual possesses seven distinct and measureable forms of intelligences is a theory called multiple intelligence. Howard Gardner is credited with sharing this theory with the world, but let’s examine the life of Howard Gardner. First, let’s mention that Howard Gardner is a developmental psychologist who was born on July 11, 1943 in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Although his initial plan was to study law, he was inspired by the work of Jean Piaget to study developmental…

There are many land formations and I chose these three. The first one is a canyon, it’s located in Arizona and its name is Grand Canyon. The second one is a volcano it’s found in Washington State, Cascade Range and it is named Mount St. Helens. The last one is a plateau and it can be found in central Asia and it is called Tibetan Plateau. And then I’ll be comparing the different land forms. The Grand Canyon is in Northern Arizona with an elevation of 8,000 feet. The process of the…

unique landforms and the geographical perspective and how Australia was formed is proved to be worthy of attention. Australia undoubtedly has one of the most unique environments in the world. Australia supports almost 10% of the biological diversity on Earth. Early in geological history, Australia was isolated from the rest of the world's land masses. This…

Many people believe in conspiracies and theories that can be true but most likely are not. The face on Mars is one of those conspiracies. Many people believe the face on Mars is a sign of alien life. It is a natural landform and there are many reasons why. There are no actual markings of life, it is similar to a Martian mesa, and our images can never be 100% accurate so illusions or other things are possible. Once the first image was revealed many people said there were no markings due to it…

research showed that inside the earth there are multiple layers. Later scientists discovered that the very first layer, the crust, is made out of plate tectonics. All the different phenomena that we see on Earth, such as earthquakes, volcanoes, and landforms, are caused by the plate tectonics. In order to understand the layers of the earth one has to understand how the earth was formed. Earth started out as planetesimals, small bodies from which a planet originated in early stages of formation…

reasons are tectonic plates, glaciation, and weathering and erosion. Tectonic plates in CT formed three major landforms. One of the three landforms is the Appalachian mountains. This mountain range is a convergent boundary. Convergent boundaries means that the two plate collide into each other pushing up the land and create the mountains (as shown in the diagram). Finally, the last landform the tectonic plates created is the CT river valley or rift valley. A rift valley is a fault line in the…

These are colossal proofs of the Western’s Cordillera’s status as the youngest region in Canada. Interior plains After a long and dangerous path down one of the largest mountains in the Western Cordillera, I have encountered my second Canadian landform, the Interior plains. All around me can I see permafrost and pingos,…
