Climate Regions of Pakistan Depending on the topography‚ there is an extreme variation in the temperature of Pakistan. The country is essentially arid except for the southern slopes of the Himalayas and the sub-mountainous tract where the annual rainfall varies between 760 and 1270 mm. This area has humid sub-Tropical climate. In the extreme north - because of great heights - Highland climate prevails. The controlling factors of the climate are: 1. The sub-Tropical location of Pakistan that tends

Division of Hydraulics‚ Maslak‚ Turkey. ABSTRACT In many regions of the world‚ increasing and decreasing trends are observed on volume of river flows. Climate change has different effects in different regions. As an effect of the change of rainfall‚ river flows and groundwater levels are also changed. However climate change has effects on water resources‚ the demand for water is also increasing by the increasing population and economic development. Istanbul as the biggest metropolis in

In the novel The Giver by Lois Lowry‚ Jonas’s personality is introversion for many reasons. When Jonas gets the job as the Receiver of Memory‚ he doesn’t like it and he thinks to himself‚ “No‚ I don’t. I can’t‚” and throw himself on their mercy‚ ask for forgiveness‚ to explain that he had been wrongly chosen‚ that he was not the right one at all”(63). Jonas gets selected as the Receiver of Memory but he doesn’t want to because in his head he is scared of the pain‚ but his heart is telling him to

important job of breaking down the dead and decayed plants and other beings. Rainfall: Acid soils are most often found in areas of high rainfall. Excess rainfall leaches base cation from the soil‚ increasing the percentage of Al3+ and H+ relative to other cations. Additionally‚ rainwater has a slightly acidic pH of 5.7 due to a reaction with CO2 in the atmosphere that forms carbonic acid. Rainfall and Leaching Excessive rainfall is an effective agent for removing basic cations (e.g.‚ Ca‚ Mg‚ K) over

a. Loss Method: NRCS Curve Number Method The U.S. Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) (formerly the Soil Conservation Service (SCS)) Curve Number method used in this study estimates the effective rainfall as a function of the cumulative rainfall‚ the land use‚ the soil type and the antecedent moisture condition of the soil. The model is described in detail in the National Engineering Handbook (NEH) (NRCS 2004). It was created based on the analysis of a large number of small and gauged agricultural

the glaciers are melting. They are melting 7% each year and many people depend on these glaciers for water. Also the dry season is drying the lakes up. Temperatures are rising faster than the global average. In addition‚ northern China’s rain and snowfall have decreased. (Document A) A second cause for China’s water scarcity is that so many people are moving to the cities. Urbanization‚ more people=more water being used‚ and water being polluted by factories are just a few reasons why the water is

April is normally the hottest month when the maximum temperature may exceed 40°c in the western part of the country. About 15% of the annual rainfall occurs in this season‚ mainly from thunderstorms or ’norwesters’. b) Rainy or Monsoon season (June-October). This is the period of highest rainfall‚ humidity and cloudiness. Nearly 80 % of the annual rainfall occurs during this season‚ and in June‚ the temperature drops due to the cooling effect of the rains. (c) Cool (winter) and dry season (November-February)

contrast to areas with savannaclimates and monsoon regimes‚mediterranean climates have wet winters and dry summers.Tropical rainforests technically do not have dry or wet seasons‚ since their rainfall is equally distributed throughout the year. Some areas with pronounced rainy seasons will see a break in rainfall mid-season‚ when the intertropical convergence zone or monsoon trough moves poleward of their location during the middle of the warm season.
