Dengue presentation

Here I post the presentation about Dengue done with Catalina Guasch.
You will know exactly what is dengue and the preventions we must have to prevent this disease

SUMMARY.

EQUATORIAL AND TROPICAL CONTINENTAL CLIMATES.

Places with an Equatorial climate lie inside the range of 5º on both sides of the Equator. The main areas are an extent of land where the surfaces converges through the exit of the basin. This areas include, The Amazon, in South America, Congo Rivers, situated in Africa and the South East of Asia.

There is a place called Manaus, which is located 3º south of the Equator and in the centre of the Amazon basin in Brazil. This place has high and constant temperatures along the year; it has two or three drier months, when the sun is above at the opposite tropic, and the presence of rain when the sun is closer to be upward. Winds are light and variable.

The Equatorial areas exceed 2000mm of annual rainfall because of the thunderstorms, occurring mostly during the afternoons. These storms are due to the confluence of warm air, being forced to rise giving as a result heavy rain. It´s an area with higher presence of humidity.

COLD CLIMATE.
Cold Climates are located from the polar circles at the poles and the zones of elevated altitude.
In that areas there are presented Very cold temperatures (under 0 degrees C).

HOT DESSERTS
Deserts cover about one fifth of Earth's surface. There are two types of desert climates

Hot and Dry Climate Deserts with hot and dry climates are warm all year round, and are extremely hot in the summer they have very little rainfall, making the climate extremely dry, and hard for plants and animals to survive.

Cold Climate Cold desert climates can be very hot and dry in the summer, but in the winter they are extremely cold and dry, with temperatures below freezing.

THE DAILY PATTERN.

The surface in the early morning is wet. The sun heats with evapotranspiration at midday. There is a presence of high temperatures, with more evapotranspiration and clouds, producing by four o´clock heavy rains.

TROPICAL CONTINENTAL.

It´s found in central parts of continents, far away from coast, between latitudes 5º and 15º North and South the Equator, including the Brazilian highland, parts of Venezuela, Northern Australia and a large part of the Congo basin, involving Kenya. The same it´s to high to share the main features of the Equatorial climate.

The Tropical Continental Climate has a wet and dry season caused by the movements. The temperatures start rising when the sun takes a more vertical position, as they fall in July and August because of the increment of clouds and rainfall. 

Congo has a cooler season when the sun is on the opposite hemisphere. The same, moves accompanied with the Equatorial low pressure  influenced by the winds from the east.

THE MONSOON, HOT DESERT AND COLD CLIMATES.

THE MONSOON.

The monsoon.

The Monsoon is referred to the word ¨season¨. There are two different seasons. One is the South-West Monsoon, The other one is the North-East monsoon wich are the consequence from the reversal in the direction of the predominant winds.

The south west Monsoon. 
The sun appears to be above at the tropic of cancer in a month. It would be intensely hot in places like Himalayas. When the hot air rises. It is formed an area of low pressure and warm, moist air is drawn Northwards from mountains.

flooding.

Mumbai reaches over 2000mm in five months and Cherrapunji, is the wettest place on earth, 4000mm. Rains origin flooding, while places in the north remain dry.

The north-east monsoon.
All along the Northern winter, the sun located at the top moves South Wards. Winds blow outwards from the high pressure area but, as they originate in a dry area, finally they give only small amounts of rain. Mumbai is one that receives 45mm in seven months. So because of this, by the end of the ¨dry season, some places are in danger of drought

Human Migration.

Hi! here are the questions, you can aswer them in the link that you have down.

1. What is your name?
2. How old are you?
3. How old were you when you migrate?
4. Did you migrate somewhere else before migrating here?
5. Why did you migrate here?
6. Were are you from?
7. Did you realy want to migrate?
8. Did you like were are you living now?
9. Would you like to go back were you live before?

What tradition of your country did you keep?

Here I write you the link Human Migration   to complete the questions.

Migration: Push factors and pull factors.

Here I live mi popplet that will talk about, migration: Pull factors and push factors

PULL FACTORS: An area that has valuable naurals resources
PUSH FACTORS: Attracting people into a new area to live

Hope you like it.

Death Rate Birth Rate

In this popplet I will talk about the birth rate and death rate

hope you like it.

Scribble Maps

This is a scribble map we had to make for Environmental Manigment about the different countries of the world:

• Australia
• China
•  Brazil
• Argentine
• United States of Amercia
• England
•  Dr congo

Also, we have to write the population, the language, the birth rate and the death rate of each one.
