inversion‚ the taller stack is able to disperse the smoke over a larger area rather than a smaller smoke stack which contaminates the surrounding area more in the relatively unstable air above the inversion. 2. How can topography contribute to pollution in a city or region? Topography is a very important factor when considering pollution because depending on the location‚ like low-lying basins and valleys pollution can be higher due to cold air draining downhill and settling in the lower areas.

the two groups are perceived and this can play into the narrative of the historiography. Examples of this can be seen in two sources of invasion‚ both within the British Isles‚ that of the Bayeux Tapestry‚ and in Gerald of Wales’ The History and Topography of Ireland. While both the Tapestry and Gerald’s writing are perspectives on distinct events‚ they each illustrate the importance of perspective especially within the need for the outside forces

THE CATENA CONCEPT Introduction The catena concept demonstrated the relationship between The catena concept The physical and chemical properties of soil can be influenced by its position along a topography. This trend is able to be explained using the catena concept. The topography influences soil formation and its microclimate (Rigg‚ 1993). The different elements of a slope are divided into the ridge‚ crest‚ slope and toeslope (Rigg‚ 1993). The main processes in a catena are the changes in surface

If a single element ends‚ the triangle breaks and the fire goes out. We are interested here in three other elements influencing the spread rate of a wildland fire and acting as input variables in wildfire prediction models: fuel characteristics‚ topography‚ and weather (Countryman‚ 1972).

Winds – The single biggest factor in the creation of surface currents is the wind. The surface of the water is generally smooth and calm‚ when strong winds move across the water the surface moves. The winds most often associated with the creation of ocean currents are the Westerlies‚ which blow west to east and the Trade Winds‚ which blow east to west. Salinity – The higher the salinity of the water the more dense it becomes. With a high level of salinity the water will sink. This starts a
