Answer:
The abundance of volcanoes and earthquakes along the Ring of Fire is caused by the amount of movement of tectonic plates in the area. Along much of the Ring of Fire, plates overlap at convergent boundaries called subduction zones. That is, the plate that is underneath is pushed down, or subducted, by the plate above

Explain the factors affecting India's climate.
Answer:
"The climate around the world is affected by many different factors that lead to different parts of the Earth experiencing differing climates. Latitude, altitude, pressure, and winds are factors that influence India’s climate. The Tropic of Cancer passes through the middle of the country from the Rann of Kuchchh in the west to Mizoram in the east. India lies in the region of northeasterly winds. These winds originate from the subtropical high-pressure belt of the northern hemisphere."
Lattitude: Therefore, India’s climate has characteristics of tropical as well as subtropical climates.
Altitude: India has mountains to the north, which have an average height of about 6,000 meters. India also has a vast coastal area where the maximum elevation is about 30 meters.
Pressure and Winds: Pressure surface and winds. Upper air circulation. Western Cyclonic activity

____ rock units are most useful when mapping structures like anticlines and synclines.
Answer:
Sedimentary
Explanation:
Sedimentary rocks are significant because they maintain traces of the deposition processes at the surface. Higher energy depositional settings are indicated by larger particles. Sedimentary formations form during lithification. Cross-bedding helps geologists to estimate ancient wind directions.
Which type of radiation from earth is the long-wave radiation absorbed by greenhouse gases?.
Answer: Longwave infared radiation
Explanation:
Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as water vapor(H2O) and carbon dioxide(CO2), absorb most of the Earth's emitted longwave infrared radiation, which heats the lower atmosphere. Once in the Earth's atmosphere, clouds and the surface absorb the solar energy. The ground heats up and re-emits energy as longwave radiation in the form of infrared rays. Earth emits longwave radiation because Earth is cooler than the sun and has less energy available to give off.

Describe the geological setting of Cascadia, located in the Pacific Northwest in 150 words or more.
Answer:
The Cascadia Subduction Zone is where the Explorer, Juan de Fuca, and Gorda plates move towards the east and are being pushed below the much larger North American Plate at the continental divide.
Explanation:
Although culturally, socially and to some extent geologically there is a wider region called the Cascadian bioregion that shares patterns of natural characteristics like watersheds and weather that extends from Northern California up to the southernmost points of Alaska and the Yukon territory, technically the Cascadia Subduction Zone describes the area from Northern Vancouver Island to Cape Mendocino in the north of California. It is 1000 km or 620 miles long and it is a region with a lot of seismic activity because it separates the Explorer, Juan de Fuca, Gorda, and North America plates. Tectonic processes affecting large cities in this area like Vancouver, British Columbia, and Portland, Oregon are accretion and deep earthquakes due to the subduction between the plates. Active volcanos are present in the Cascades like Mount Rainier and Mount Saint Helens.
