The tropical rainforest climate is very diverse and interesting. The combination of the climate, vegetation, animals, and uses that the tropical rainforest provides is extensive. One day I will visit one of the few locations of the tropical rainforest, but first I need to know some basic information; where the tropical rainforest is located, the climate and weather, vegetation, animal life, production and people, and impact on the biome. This biome is located on the equator but doesn’t restrict…

The rainforests are being cut down at an immensely dangerous rate and little to nothing is being done to grow the forests back up again.

The probable causes of this phenomenon would obey profound alterations between the atmosphere and ocean, which would be generated in the region of the tropical Pacific, causing abnormalities in the general circulation of the atmosphere with varied effects reverberating globally. The occurrence of this phenomenon results in climate changes, mostly accompanied by abundant rainfall, alterations in marine and terrestrial ecosystems, issue straight influenced and negative impacts on the national…

or she is likely to be protected from future infections by developing disease-related specific antibodies. Zika virus was first discovered in 1947 in rhesus monkeys through a monitoring network of sylvatic yellow fever and is named after the Zika forest in Uganda. In 1952, the first human cases of Zika were detected in Uganda and the United Republic of Tanzania and since then, outbreaks of Zika have been reported in tropical…

In addition to food production, climate changes impacts human health. Air pollution leads to asthma and cardiovascular disease. Severe weather causes injuries, fatalities, and mental health impacts. Extreme heat can lead to dehydration, heat stroke, or even death. Climate change also impacts water and food quality. Poor food quality can cause malnutrition and diarrheal disease. Poor water quality can cause cholera, cryptosporidiosis, campylobacter, and leptospirosis (CDC 2015). Warmer…
