Erosion
The process where eroded materials are dropped or laid down.
What is deposition?
This system is used for tracking weather patterns, helping in emergency services, and finding hiking trails.
What is a global positioning system?
This type of map shows specific data.
What is a thematic map?
The amount of water flowing past a point.
What is discharge?
This type of remote sensing shows clear details of building, roads, and trees.
What is aerial photographs?
Example - (1:1000), (1:5000), (1:24,000)
What is an ratio?
This boundary creates mid-ocean ridges.
What is a divergent boundary?
A triangular-shaped deposit at river mouth.
What is a delta?
This shows different types of information about places and can be added or removed from different map layers.
What is a geographic information system?
You can see this view through the cloud.
What is a radar image?
This layer of the earth causes earthquakes, mountain building, and volcanoes.
What is the mantle?
This dissolves rock (limestone) and creates caves and sinkholes. This also affects the water table.
What is groundwater?
This type of imaging shows temperature differences and helps track weather patterns.
What is thermal images?
This color on a map shows elevation contours.
What is brown?
This boundary collides and causes trenches.
What is a convergent boundary?
This protects mainland coast and creates wave deposition.
What is a barrier island?
Bonus: Pahoehoe
This image is taken from space, can show larger areas of earth, and can see through clouds using special tools.
What is a satellite image?
This layer of the mantle is very rocky and solid and is the upper layer (closest to the crust).
This describes lines connecting points of equal elevation.
What is contour lines?
When a plate with oceanic crust collides with a plate with continental crust, and the oceanic crust sinks into the asthenosphere.
