Hány évszak van az átmeneti övben?
Kettő- esős és száraz
Nevezd meg a hideg övezet két fő övét
Sarkköri öv,
Sarkvidéki öv
What is Glaciation?
The changing of landforms by slowly moving glacier/s
What is soil?
The uppermost, thin, loosely structured, fertile layer of the earth's crust, which provides water and nutrients for plants.
Rock debris and tailings only become soil when organic matter accumulates in them.
What is the general climate of a temperate climate zone?
Moderate rainfall spread across the year or portion of the year with sporadic drought, mild to warm summers and cool to cold winters.
Melyik szélrendszer határozza meg az átmeneti öv éghajlatát?
Passzát szélrendszer
Nevezd meg a hideg övezet két fő éghajlatát
állandóan fagyos éghajlat
Tundra éghajlat
What does Chemical Weathering require in order to occur?
Chemical weathering requires water containing chemical agents and acids.
What is level A (leaching level) the most rich in?
Humus
What does a climate graph show us?
Yearly temperature and precipitation statistics for a particular location.
Mi az átmeneti öv természetes növénytakarója?
Szavanna
Nevezd meg a sarkköri öv fő növénytársulását
Explain Ice Wedging
Water freezing into ice in the cracks of the rocks cracks them apart.
Why do tropical soils have a reddish colour?
The presence of iron oxides that form as a result of chemical weathering causes this soil to be reddish in colour.
What causes us to have 'real climate zones'?
The location of land and seas, topography, wind systems, and ocean currents significantly modify the boundaries of the solar climate zones so we can talk about real climate zones.
Mivel foglalkoznak leginkább a térítői övben?
Mi formálja a felszínt leginkább a hideg övezetben?
Fagy okozta aprózódás
Explain Thermal Stress
Temperature changes causing mechanical weathering. Changes in temperature cause rock to expand (with heat) and contract (with cold). As this happens over and over again, the structure of the rock weakens. Over time, it crumbles.
Give a basic explanation of the term "monsoon".
Winds that blow from different directions depending on the season are called monsoons.
What is the climate like along the Equatorial Belt?
The equatorial belt has an equatorial climate, characterized by a single, hot, rainy season
Közép- Afrika területén található éhségövezet az átmeneti övben, ahol az élelmiszer termelés nem tud lépést tartani a népesség növekedésével .
Miért nincsen vízhiány a hideg övezetben?
Mert nem csak a csapadék, de a párolgás is kevés, így nem alakul ki.
Sometimes blocks of ice are trapped in the sediment. They melt slowly and leave behind a dent or a depression in the ground. These depressions are called?
Kettles
What is a "rain shadow?"
A region with little rainfall because it is sheltered from prevailing rain-bearing winds by a range of hills
Why does the soil at the Equatorial Belt have little humus?
Humus is hardly formed because leaching is strong (because of the high levels of rainfall).
