**LIST OF KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS -** *C2 Great natural landscapes on Earth* **1T** Name:Selah Class: 1t2 **Study tips** - - - - - **General skills** - - - **Paragraph 1: Deforestation in the Amazon** 1. 2. Temperature: ↑18°C all year long Precipitation: ↑2000 mm per year Vegetation: a lot of trees and very wet 3. 4. 5. - - - - - 6. - 7. 1. 3\. water vapor ,clouds develop 4. starts to rain 8. - - - 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. **Paragraph 2: The Australian outback** 14. Savannah: high grass and groups of trees Steppes: gets enough for low grass and shrubs Desert: almost nothing grows there it\'s too dry 15. 16. Tropical rainforest: ↑2000 mm Savanna: 500-2000 mm Steppes: 250-500 mm Desert: ↓250 mm 17. 1.air descends 2. cloud dissolve 3.warm air holds more water vapor 18. You can [use] precipitation in Australia *(W6)* to [explain] the locations of the different n-e have most precipitation on the cost in the s-w + middle very less precipitation 19. You can [explain] Australia\'s land use *(figure 9)* using yearly average precipitation (W6). they most people live were the most precipitation is because els its too dry too live there 20. extensive -little animals per hectare intensive -many animals per hectare 21. 22. because there is lots of precipitation animals go there more 23. temperature like 26° C and the precipitation 100-300 mm 24. they transport water to the dry area so they also have water **Paragraph 3: Inuit in the Arctic** 25. Description:the people live on the coastal areas Explanation: it\'s too cold for the people because there is too much ice and snow 26. 27. Taiga: grass, moss and small shrubs because it\'s too cold for the rest 28. the permafrost will melt on the grass and it will get moshy 29. sea ice = frozen sea water land ice= layer of perpetual snow 30. 1\. global warming because the ice is melting 2\. arctic ocean is getting thinner 31. **Paragraph 4: The Lötschental** 32. most villages and towns are low lying areas 33. 34. 35. 36. 1\. perpetual snow 4000m 2\. rocky zone 2500-35000 m 3\. alpine meadow 2500-2000 m 4\. coniferous forest 2000-1000 m 5\. deciduous forest 0-1000 m You can [name] how many degrees colder it gets per 100 meters you go up on a mountain. (G52) 6°C per 1000 meter 37. Tree line: the line where trees stop white growing You can [explain] why glaciers in the Alps are melting. (exercise 5) climate change **Summary exercise:** 38. 1 polar Where? 2 tropical Where? 3 temperate Where? 4 dry Where? 39. Climate: polar Precipitation:little precipitation mostly in snow form Temperature:cold all year :summer average is 10° C Climate: tropical Precipitation:all year long Temperature:sometimes very hot and sometimes slightly colder Climate: dry Precipitation:very little or no precipitation Temperature:hot all year never colder than 18° C Climate: temperate Precipitation:precipitation all or most of the year Temperature:neither hot nor cold 40. Weather:is precipitation ,temperature and wind on a specific place and time Climate:average weather in a place for a longer time 41. ![](media/image3.png) 42. 8 D 43.
