Latitude

the stars of the northern sky appears to rotate. It also marks the end of the Little Dipper’s handle and the whole constellation (Ursa Minor) is circumpolar, which means it’s always above the horizon in northern latitudes to as far south as the tropic of Cancer (23.5 degrees north latitude). The Big Dipper is part of the larger constellation, Ursa Major. It ascends in the northeast on spring evenings and descends in the northwest on fall evenings. An old saying, “spring up and fall down” reminds…

machines that are used to massively wipe out these areas. “Previous modelling studies show that the global surface air temperature (SAT) response to deforestation depends on latitude, with most simulations showing that high latitude deforestation results in cooling, low latitude deforestation causes warming and that the mid latitude response is mixed” (Longobardi). Deforestation causes 15% of greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere. Forests help lessen climate change because they absorb…

Annual precipitation totals variety from 50 to one hundred twenty-five cm (approximately 20 to 50 inches), with higher quantities within the south of the area and in the uplands nearly all regions with this climate have snow. This is because the moisture is evaporated from the land at a slow, normal pace, and is the reason why precipitation falls regularly during all four seasons. Humid Continental has an extensive variety of temperatures, which means low, cold temperatures and excessive heat…

Latitude likewise keeps up an off-site fiasco recuperation office, with ceaseless information back-ups. Latitude gives services to more than 100 normal gas pipelines, storerooms, utilities, law offices and vitality advertisers across the nation, including Stagecoach Storage, Portland Natural Gas Transmission…

On your first day of school you probably end up getting lost and requesting for directions. The same situation applies to early transoceanic adventurers, except they couldn't ask anyone for help. To make it across the tough and dangerous ocean, they had to rely on themselves and their crew. Early explorers had to solve their lack of navigation by using different technique and inventions. A sailor’s natural surrounding helps them when they travel unfamiliar lands. Early explorers use their…

circulation patterns exert a tremendous influence on regional weather and climate especially in the mid-latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere1. However, there is a significant debate over how patterns will respond to climate change. In this experiment, I will analyze climate models using a specific metric called sinuosity to determine how climate change will affect circulation patterns in the mid-latitudes. This information is impactful and important as changes in circulation patterns may raise…

navigating. A map is primarily for the use of traveling on land. While traveling longitude and latitude are in use by the user. For example, say a person is traveling and gets lost. In this case the traveler will use a compass and a map to determine their location, and then find their destination by plotting their location. Charts are primarily for the use of traveling in the ocean and they do use longitude and latitude; however, a user depends on the depths of the water which is in…

However, the ozone layers are found to be thicker at higher latitudes rather than at the tropics. Meridional and downward transport of ozone molecules in the stratosphere carries the O3 away from the equator and tropics, towards the poles where it collects to form thicker layers. In the northern hemisphere, the greatest column densities occur during spring at the polar latitudes. Therefore, airline passengers flying at high latitudes are exposed to higher ozone concentrations than those flying…

the reason for adjustments to the surface vitality and mass adjust that can prompt environmental change far and wide. The worldwide surface air temperature reaction to deforestation relies on the latitude. High latitude deforestation brings about cooling, low latitude brings about warming, and mid latitude is blended (Longoboardi, 1-34). Utilizing a worldwide atmosphere demonstrate, deforested ranges are drier and have a lower surface air temperature. Higher scopes of deforested territories are…
