    The plain of Holderness did not exist before the Ice Age. It was once a wide bay backed by chalk cliffs running from Flamborough Head to Hessle, west of the city of Hull. Today Holderness is made up of glacial tills – sands and clays deposited by ice sheets during the Ice Age (Figure 4). The tills are soft and unstable and have little resistance to erosion. The low cliffs repeatedly slump down along rotational slip planes, lubricated by water which reduces friction and makes the sands and clays slip easily. The sea washes the slumped material away. This rapid coastal retreat will continue until the old buried cliff-line along the eastern edge of the Yorkshire Wolds is once again exposed. This is composed of much more resistant chalk rock, which will again form impressive white cliffs such as those north of Bridlington.…

    World Cities

    A world city is a large city that has outstripped its national urban network and has become part of an international global system. They have become powerful nodal points for the multiplicity of linkages, and interconnections that sustain the contemporary world economies, social and political systems. The result is a new world system of cities acting as ‘organising nodes’. In other words, they link regional, national, and international economies into the global economy, and this assists their main role as powerful centres of economic and cultural authority. These world cities are dominated by TNC’s which are part of an international global system, and these corporations select regional cities as strategic centres from which to extend their influence within the global economy. The growth of world cities is facilitated by increasing telecommunication networks and improvements in technology, and the links of air transport between world cities.…

    The five major air masses which affect the British Isles (Arctic maritime, Polar continental, Tropical continental, Tropical maritime and Polar maritime) are which contribute to the weather in the UK.

    Ideally, the conversation on whether or not to withhold findings for one quarter would start with the question, “Why?” This would lead to research on how money was being reported in the books and as a result, the team would have found that WorldCon was substantially overstating their profits by writing off the phone-line leases as a capital expense instead of an operating expense. Cooper’s team then would be left with a decision, to hold back on findings, which would falsify the records, or to reject Sullivan’s request and potentially bring the company down?…
