Author’s Name Instructor’s Name Course Date Mid Latitude Cyclone in Southern Hemisphere A mid latitude cyclone can also be referred to as an extratropical cyclone. As the name mid latitude suggests‚ they are found outside the tropics but before the north and south poles‚ approximately between 23 and 66 degrees on each of the hemispheres or the temperate zones of the earth between the Antarctic and the Arctic Polar Regions and the tropics. A cyclone on the other had refers to a location that

the world into a primarily rich‚ industrialised North Hemisphere and a poor‚ developing Southern Hemisphere which is almost entirely dependent on the North. This idea reached its peak with the publishing of the Brandt report in 1980‚ which made 10 key proposals for policies to reduce the global inequality between the north and the south. All 8 of the G8 nations are in the Northern Hemisphere and out of the 30 members of the OECD‚ 26 are northern countries. This concept is believed to belong to the

ocean currents. There are many factors that influence ocean currents‚ four of the factors would be planet rotation‚ wind‚ density of water‚ and gravitation. Planet rotation causes the currents to move clockwise in the northern hemisphere and counter clockwise in the southern hemisphere. Wind blows on the surface of the ocean therefore pushing the water in the direction of the wind. Different densities in the water can cause currents to form and move. Gravitation pulls the water “downhill.” 2. Explain

the world rotates it tilts at different angles towards the hemispheres‚ North and South. When the earth’s axis is tilted toward the Northern hemisphere‚ The northern hemisphere gets more light and warmth for more hours of the day‚ So then it is colder and darker for more hours of the day in the Southern hemisphere. This information meaning that it would be Summer time in the Northern hemisphere and winter time in the Southern hemisphere.

why did the world become so unequal? In the mid-1600s the Europeans first arrive at the southernmost tip of South Africa. The southernmost tip of Africa and Europe are almost identical in latitude‚ with Europe in the northern hemisphere and South Africa in the southern hemisphere. At equal latitudes‚ both locations have relatively identical climates. This made it extremely easy for Europeans to settle and adapt comfortably. Their arrival forced many natives of the land to leave. Also‚ the arrival

Why do we have seasons and how do they affect my life? We have seasons because the earth is tilted on its axis‚ as it makes its yearly journey around the sun. The Earth’s axis is tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees. This means that the earth is always ‘pointing’ to one side as it goes around the sun. So‚ sometimes the sun is in the direction that the earth is pointing‚ but not at other times. The varying amount of sunlight around the earth‚ during the year‚ creates the seasons. We have hot

less-than-ideal climatic conditions. If you notice‚ the power in the world lies in the Norther Hemisphere. This is not a coincidence‚ but a result of the poor land fertility‚ high water scarcity and high disease outspread in tropic areas present in more abundance in the Southern Hemisphere. People in those regions have had to work twice as hard just to survive and have had fewer development opportunities than northern countries. 2) Natural resources available in the region also play a big role in how

The two contain an "eye" which is the center of the destruction. They are very violent storms and produce intense low pressures. This is hard to believe but both tornadoes and hurricanes rotate clockwise in the southern hemisphere and rotate counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere. There are a ton of differences between tornadoes and hurricanes. One is that tornadoes form on land and hurricanes develop over warm‚ tropical waters. A tornado only lasts a few minutes while a hurricane can last

longest and the nights are shortest‚ with day-length decreasing as the season progresses after the solstice. The date of the beginning of summer varies according to climate‚ culture‚ and tradition‚ but when it is summer in the Northern Hemisphere it is winter in the Southern Hemisphere‚ and vice versa.

In all countries‚ children are out of school during this time of year for summer
