Climatic Conditions In Georgia
Georgia is a mountainous country that is surrounded by Azerbaijan in the east, the Black Sea in the west, the Russian Federation in the north and the Armenia in the south forming a 330km-long coastline. The climatic condition of Georgia varies among the six states` land regions that are well defined by the four seasons: A warm summer that is characterized by an average temperature of around 800C with an added advantage of the Indian summer that stretches into October. It also has an autumn brisk that has gleaming fall foliage all the way through the state mostly the mountains. The winters are brief with temperatures at the 40s and the snowfalls severally all the yearlong ("Climate in Georgia," 2017). The springs are glorious making Georgia …show more content…
A rise in temperatures will evaporate the water in swamps making it difficult for the water birds. This might lead to them looking for a favorable environment, giving the snakes a chance to multiply since one of their predators would have been eliminated. Similarly, the alligators, lizards, turtles and the frog will have the capability to survive in such constantly changing swamps water levels. The frogs have the capacity of hibernating if conditions escalated unlike the water birds and the snakes that will either die or migrate to other regions. The surrounding Appalachian Mountains could offer better natural living conditions since it has a nice swatch of unharmed lands. Climatic temperature rise would not necessarily house a lot of new organisms since not many living organisms would survive in very high …show more content…
Shifting of temperatures to the extreme would force people to migrate to other conducive places until the conditions are right. Such high temperatures will lead to the change of the dress code leading to the people exposing much of their bodies of which does not match with our culture trends. I would not choose to continue living in such an environment with such extreme temperatures since they will interfere with my health negatively. Such high temperatures might as well make it difficult to access food and other necessities for us living in

    On February 12, 1733 a guy named James Oglethorpe, who was an English settler from England, and the rest of his crew landed in America and they landed on a piece of land now known as Georgia. Throughout the years Georgia has had four capitals, Savannah from 1733 through 1784, Augusta from 1785 through 1795, Louisville from 1796 until 1806, Milledgeville from 1809 until 1868, and its current capital of Atlanta from 1868 and still today. Another great fact about Georgia is it had the first full college made just for women called the Wesleyan College. Some notable companies that make Georgia their home: Coca-Cola, Delta Airlines, The Home Depot, and Turner Broadcasting. At one point many famous people have called Georgia home. Some of the more notable ones are Alice Walker, author of The Color Purple, Carson McCullers, author of The Lonely Hunter, musical greats James Brown, Ray Charles, and Trisha Yearwood.…

    In the equator’s vicinity the temperature changes from season to season would fluctuate from -5.4°C (22.3°F) to its accustomed temperature of 40°C (104°F). In a latitude of 80° the range of temperature would be reaching below -60°C (-76°F) to 35°C (95°F). Temperature range for the other latitudes as follows: 20°N range -34°C- +40°C; 40°N-60°N ranging from below -60°C- +40°C. With extreme temperatures like these the earth would remain livable but only in a much more diminutive area although with migration attained in the warmer seasons more sustainable areas become available yet many of the species seen on earth today would be…

    Because of the climate change, the earth is in danger. People don’t realize that the things they use or do every day are hurting the earth and living things. Nature.org says, “…one-fourth of Earth’s species will be headed for extinction by 2050 if the warming trend continues at its current rate…” Because the temperature is increasing, ice is melting. Because ice is melting, sea levels are rising. Higher temperatures don’t only melt ice but evaporates the moisture in the air. Evaporation will take away all of the land’s water leaving it as dry as a desert. With a drought now in progress, it will make it harder to find water and support agriculture.…

    First, there is the temperature rise itself. ‘Altitudinal limits of plant and animal communities will shift upward and amphibians must either move with them or acclimate until adaption occurs’ (Wake, 2008 p. 11471). Another cause that might have led to today’s mass extinction is the magnitude of human population. It has increased dramatically since industrialization and caused habitat modification and destruction, often accompanied by the use of pesticides and fertilizers. Moreover, with the expansion of human populations in new habitats, new diseases have emerged that could have consequences for many taxa (Wake, 2008 p. 11472). Coming back to the anoxic events, the likelihood of them causing the current mass extinction is small, as anoxic events have not yet been verified to be the main cause of a mass extinction event. Furthermore, the effects of anoxic events are relatively smaller than the effects of a global temperature rise at the pace that is happening now. On the other hand, all the conditions for anoxia are present and therefore it would not be surprising if anoxic events would be the main cause after…

    For the people specifically in agricultural business in New England. Climate change could be good and bad. Climate change may force some farmers to stop growing certain crops because of the climate, but it may allow them to grow different crops that have never been grown in New England before. If any original crops are still growing in New England farmers may need to explore a different hardest schedule due to the longer seasons and warmer temperatures and monitor pests because with the warming earth pests will flourish and their populations will increase. Climate change could be the peak of New England agriculture or the…

    Climate change is an incredibly serious issue with so many hazards and risks. If we let it go any further than it already has, it will ultimately lower the quality of life on earth, as well as cause several more problems, as if we already don’t have enough. Yes, it will be much warmer, and eventually we will have fantastic weather a majority of the time, however the amount of disadvantages far outweigh the good. An abundance of animals will slowly begin to go extinct, and as the title entails, devastating climate issues will arise, like more droughts in southern regions, much more precipitation in higher regions, as well as other occurrences like forest fires and hurricanes. It’s easy to disregard these matters, since all of this seems like a slow process and it hardly affects us now. Yet, as the technology industry continues to develop, and the need for polluting factories increases, we’ll be getting closer and closer to destroying the easy way of life on this planet. Perhaps in our lifetime, we won’t be able to witness the extreme effects of climate change, although if we keep doing what we’re doing, our future generations will not be in for an easy ride.…

    Food and water will be much more expensive then it has ever been before, and many people won’t be able to afford it. Society will be forced to live a lifestyle of discomfort because they will be forced to move from the danger that may strain their health. This is where poverty comes in as a vast social issue seen in many countries. Even pope Francis agrees that the poor will be the most affected by climate change. Consequently the extreme temperature changes caused by climate change will have no mercy on disadvantaged groups living on the streets with no resources for protection. With a lack of protection, many people could die of sickness caused by solar rays or in floods with no…

    With the increasing ocean temperatures, nonnative species are slowly taking over certain native species. The effects of climate change on communities can occur via both direct impacts on the diversity and abundance of native species and indirect effects due to increased dominance of introduced species. These invasive species can live in more of a broad range of temperatures than the native species, and in these broader ranges the native species will attempt to compete with this invasive species for resources and lose. Survival rate of the invasive species becomes higher than that of the native species as the ocean temperatures rise. As the temperature went up, the native species’ grow rates started to decline, yet the growth rates of the nonnative species did not change. This could lead to certain species’ extinction if the temperature of the water rises too far out of the native species ‘optimal’ range. There is a decreased survivorship in certain native species when the temperature of the water is raised 4.5°C. There was no change for the invasive species’ survivorship at the same temperature. Invasive dominance has increased concurrently with ocean warming over the past 40 years. While invasive species will thrive, ever rising ocean temperature will…
