India Climate: India’s climate is strongly influenced by the Himalayas and the Thar Desert. The Himalayas‚ along with the Hindu Kush mountains in Pakistan‚ prevent cold Central Asian katabatic winds from blowing in‚ keeping the bulk of the Indian subcontinent warmer than most locations at similar latitudes. Concurrently‚ the Thar Desert plays a role in attracting moisture-laden southwest summer monsoon winds that‚ between June and October‚ provide the MOST of India’s rainfall. At the moment‚ India’s

turbines that exploit Britain’s climate‚ hydro-power which captures energy from falling water‚ and wave power which captures energy from the sea are some of the main sources. The potential for the effective use of renewable sources of the main sources. The potential for the effective use of renewable sources of energy in this country is huge‚ but its implementation is poor. What is the cost of using non-renewable sources? Most serious of all is the contribution to climate change. We have been steadily

India has a large number of climatic regions‚ tropical climate in the south to temperate and alpine in the north Himalayan regions. The elevated Himalayan regions receive snowfall in the winter months. Himalayas and the Thar Desert substantially influence the Indian climate. The Himalayas block the cold winds from Central Asia. This keeps the Indian subcontinent warmer than places with similar latitudes. Thar Desert attracts the south west monsoons during the June to October post summer months‚

Climate of Bangladesh Climate is the average weather of 30-year time period for a particular region. Climate is not the same as weather‚ but rather‚ it is the average pattern of weather for a particular region. Weather describes the short-term state of atmosphere. The Tropic of Cancer passes through the center of Bangladesh and the country’s climate can be described as tropical monsoon type - warm and humid in the summer‚ dry and cool in the winter. The dominant climatic factor for Bangladesh is

first I will talk about weather of savanna then I talk about where you can find savanna. Then I will talk about how do plant adapt to savanna. Then it will be about how do animals adapt to savanna then is food chain and there is more. Climate Climate of savanna is usually warm. So I think that’s why in savanna has a lot of grass. When is usually warm the grass grow a lot. Temperature range of savanna is 68 degrees to 86 degrees F. The amount of rain is 10 to 30 inches per year. During the

TUNDRA CLIMATE The tundra biome is characterized by extremely cold temperatures and treeless‚ frozen landscapes. There are two types of tundra‚ the arctic tundra and the alpine tundra . ARCTIC TUNDRA The arctic tundra is located in the extreme northern hemisphere around the North Pole. This area experiences low amounts of precipitation and extremely cold temperatures for most of the year. The arctic tundra typically receives less than 10 inches of precipitation per year (mostly in the form of

Climate The community from Division 17 that I choice to analysis from the 1981 – 2010 Canadian climate Norma’s was the Saskatchewan side of Lloydminster. The reason I chose Lloydminster is because it is one of the two cities that is located in Division 17. The daily mean temperature is very constant and predictable‚ as for the precipitation‚ it is a lot less predictable. When looking at the daily average for temperature I found it interesting that on average only 5 months of the year are below zero

The Climate Crisis Global warming: an increase in the earth’s atmospheric and oceanic temperatures widely predicted to occur due to an increase in the greenhouse effect resulting especially from pollution. Given the definition it may not sound as scary as it actually is. The whole process of global warming is a science in itself. It may also be known as `the climate crisis’ because scientists believe that the occurrence of such extreme temperatures will bring our earth to turmoil

There are five causes of climate‚ latitude‚ elevation‚ ocean/wind currents‚ terrain and closeness to large bodies of water. There are many types of climates. Two interesting climates are the Mediterranean climate and Ice Cap climates. These two climates are very different. The Ice cap climate is located only near the poles‚ while the Mediterranean climate is mostly located on the western sides of continents. The first climate is Mediterranean. This climate is located between the 30 and 45 degree

What’s your opinion on climate change? Faisal Mohammad May 30‚ 2012 Science Class Mr. Greenley Lots of people don’t realize what’s happing around the world. It is being brought up on computer sites‚ televisions‚ and magazines. We don’t take the time to read about it‚ and find out what is really happing to our Earth. I strongly believe that climate change is happing to us and we could reduce it. We have been killing the Earth since the 1800s by polluting it.My three reasons why I strongly believe
