Composition of Martian Crust
Earth ScienceAsked by: Christopher Hernandez Based on these data sources, scientists think that the most abundant chemical elements in the Martian crust are silicon, oxygen, iron, magnesium, aluminium, calcium, and potassium. These elements are major components of the minerals comprising igneous rocks. What is the composition of Mars crust? It’s made of iron, nickel, and sulfur.
Literature on thematic 4D maps
General Knowledge & EducationThe Wild World of 4D Thematic Maps: Seeing Our World Evolve Ever looked at a map and wished you could see it… move? That’s the basic idea behind thematic 4D maps, and trust me, it’s way cooler than it sounds. We’re not just talking about static images anymore; we’re diving into maps that show change
Volcano in ocean?
Outdoor GearVolcanoes of the Deep: Earth’s Secret Fiery Side We all know about volcanoes on land, the ones that dramatically reshape landscapes with fiery eruptions. But what about the volcanoes hidden beneath the waves? Turns out, our oceans are teeming with them! These submarine volcanoes, though often out of sight, are absolute powerhouses, quietly shaping our
Does vegetation contribute to long-term carbon sequestration?
Earth ScienceAsked by: Peggy Dunbar So yes, vegetation can contribute to long-term carbon sequestration, although primarily by mechanisms other than the river transport and ocean deposition you proposed. Show activity on this post. Plant matter decomposes, partly it is digested aerobically (releasing CO2 again) but partly it forms humic acids. What factors influence carbon sequestration? Uptake
If the distance between Earth and the moon were changed, would the effects be immediate?
Earth ScienceAsked by: Peggy Dunbar What would happen if you decrease the distance between the Earth and the Moon slightly? If the satellite were slightly closer, the tidal bulge would grow. Low tides would be lower and high tides would be higher and any low lying coastline would be flooded. If the Moon got much closer,
Does a table summarizing basic details of significant operational weather models exist?
Earth ScienceAsked by: Danielle Cottle What is an operational weather model? Operational forecasting involves generating weather forecasts that people use to make decisions, from the daily choice of whether or not to carry an umbrella to life-or-death decisions about whether to issue evacuation orders. How accurate are weather forecast models? The Short Answer: A seven-day forecast
