heavy precipitation over the intertropical convergence zone (itcz) and the windward side of mountain ranges are both caused by
what geologic features would you expect to find at an ocean-continent convergent boundary? choose all answers that are correct. (more than 1 is right.)
III. Valley Development: You have control of a time machine. Your journey into the far future begins in a deep, rocky canyon, inhabited by a small stream in the center. Your journey ends in the same location, but the landscape has changed to one that is flat in every direction for as far as you can see. The stream is present, lies generally above the surrounding landscape, and is separated by hills that parallel the channel on either side. You note that the stream is much larger than the one you left in the past. A. Fully detail and discuss the evolution of the landscape from a high gradient one to that of a low gradient, well-developed, and wide floodplain over time. Be sure to list and detail all relative landforms and stream characteristics (meanders, oxbow lakes, Yazoo streams, natural levees, etc.) that result as the landscape alters with each phase over time.
frost wedging occurs because: group of answer choices rocks becomes brittle when they freeze and water occupies more volume than ice. ice expands when it freezes rocks become brittle when they freeze and water flows downhill. rocks become brittle when they freeze. water flows downhill and occupies more volume than ice.
arable land is accurately described by which statement? multiple choice if cared for properly, it is a renewable resource. over half of irrigated lands in developing countries have been desalinized. poor farming practices have caused arable lands to turn into swamps. soil erosion helps to distribute dirt across arable lands.

what landform is deposited as a wide ridge by sediment on the middle or the margins of a stream channel?
what was the relationship between earth's temperature and incoming solar radiation between 1998 and 2014?
what is the term used to refer to the principle that as distance from a source increases the frequency of appearances tends to decrease kansas geography
if precipitation is more than 1/2 of the potential evapotranspiration, but not equal to it, the climate is
a rock is found to be composed almost entirely of quartz, but with a small amount of a flaky mineral that breaks into thin sheets when you scratch it. what is the mineral composition of this rock?
in regards to metamorphic processes, recrystallization: group of answer choices occurs when chemical reactions digest minerals of the protolith and new minerals grow changes the mineralogical composition of the protolith occurs when rocks undergo squeezing and grains change shape changes the texture (shape and size of the grains)
