The only process that does not have a gaseous stage.

Phosphorus

This process starts with rock erosion.

Phosphorus

Large amounts of carbon dioxide are absorbed by these two things

Oceans and plants

The process of turning nitrites into nitrates.

Nitrification

Nitrogen is a key element in the formation of this substance necessary to living things.

Amino acids

Convergent

An area surrounding the pacific plate that is home to the earth’s most volcanoes.

Ring of Fire

Landmass found at diverging plates

Ridge

Earthquakes are measured on the this scale

Richter Scale

Law of Lateral Continuity

Air movement caused by land being warmer than the ocean.

Sea Breeze

Winds that weaken and cause ENSO

Trade winds

Location of the thermocline near Australia under normal conditions.

Deep

Latitudes where warm air rises.

0 60 N & S

Shortened version is ENSO.

El Nino Southern Oscillation

The first organism to grow on dry magma and secrete acid to break down bare rock

Moss (Lichens)

Secondary succession occurs after a disturbance in an ecosystem that doesn’t destroy this.

Soil

This natural occurring event promotes an increase in trees

Landslides

Ecological succession on an island is similar to primary succession on land, but the species must come from this

ancestors carried by water, wind, or other organisms

This biome is characterized by low precipitation and high latitudes

Tundra

This biome is characterized by trees like oak, maple, buckeye, and cedar

Deciduous Forest

This biome is characterized by animals like bears, moose, and trees like the evergreen

Coniferous Forest

This biome is very hot during the day and very cold at night.

Desert

This biome is characterized by average rainfall and is also referred to as the steppe

Grassland

Natural event that encourages the population increase of grasses

Wild Fires

Shield Volcano

Causes hurricanes to form over water

Pressure difference between mixing hot and cold fronts

Major Fault in California

St. Andreas Fault

3 Reasons for good fishing in S. America during normal years.

High thermocline, Little rain, Nutrients from upwelling

Scientists

In 1915 this scientist coined the phrase “Pangea” to describe the supercontinent that was all the current land masses joined together.
