The Influence Of West Marine Coastal Climate

How effective are the coastal management strategies used at present in your local beach area?

The climate of the Coastal Plain is mild, with hot summers and cool winters with few hard freezes.

From June to November the water and air temperature are colder because of the Humboldt Current, this is nutrient water that attracts fish and sea birds. The sky is filled with clouds, wind is stronger and seas a bit rougher.[VISUAL AID]

4. Places downwind of a large body of water generally have milder seasons than places farther inland at the same latitude.

The Marine West Coast is located along the west coast of mid-latitude continents. In this climate, temperature doesn’t really change during different seasons. It mainly only has two seasons: winter and summer. The ocean helps keep the summer months cool and the winter months warm. This creates a mild, but wet climate. The coldest month has an average of 30 degrees. The warmest month has an average of about 70 degrees. The average amount of precipitation depends on different regions. The regions that have this climate

I noticed that the city has humid climate that is slightly modified by its relative proximity to the Atlantic Seaboard and The Great Lakes. The area experiences extremes of all four seasons, with temperatures ranging from zero to 90° F depending on the month. The city experiences a significant amount of rain most of the year and a slight bit of snow during the winter time.

Earth’s atmosphere is surrounded by thin layers of gasses, 78% is made of nitrogen, 21% is made up of oxygen, 0.4% orgon, and 0.03% is made up of carbon dioxide. Wildfires, Earthquakes, Floods, Tsunamis, Landslides and Coastal Changes are natural hazards in different California regions. California is interconnected water systems serves over 30 million people irrigates over 5,680,000 acres of farmland.

LaTessia Shane Professor Karmosky Geography 151 21 May 2015 California and Portugal Portugal and the Southwestern part of California both have the same climate type. The climate type is Mediterranean. Mediterranean climates have hot, dry, sunny summers and a winter rainy season. (Thomas et al.

The purpose of this research paper is to evaluate and examine California Ocean Protection Act in many ways, such as how it is critical to the state's environmental and economic security, and how integral to the state's high quality of life and culture. This paper will use primary sources, such as E. Goldman, Sonke Mastrup, State of California Ocean Protection Council and Legal Info for California to analyze and evaluate the importance of Ocean environment in California coasts.

What is the weather like in areas that are near an ocean or sea?mild weather year around

With the upcoming El Niño, Los Angeles is at harm from any effects, such as landslides, mudflows, and flooding. El Niño has severely affected the coastal areas of Los Angeles County three times during the years of 1977-1978, 1982-1983, and 1997-1998 (FEMA, 2011). Los Angeles County has several watersheds such as the Los Angeles River, Santa Monica Bay, and San Gabriel River (LADPW) that serve to reduce flooding, but it may not have the proper infrastructure to prevent commercial or residential areas from flooding. Los Angeles may not have levees that can protect its areas because they might be structurally inferior or are not approved by FEMA (City of Los Angeles, Engineering. 2015). There are many hilly areas in Los Angeles, and residential

According to the map, locations near the Atlantic Ocean have higher air temperatures than locations further inland because water has a higher specific heat than land and therefore would retain its heat for much longer. Specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degrees Celsius. The process by which solar heat is absorbed by the ocean is much slower than land because water has a higher specific heat capacity but this also means that the ocean loses its heat slower. Since the temperatures on the map are between -8 and 20 degrees fahrenheit, it can be inferred that the season in the United States was winter. This means that the ocean still contained the retained heat that accumulated gradually from

As carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, increased concentrations of it have led to an amplified greenhouse effect. More solar infrared radiation is re-emitted and absorbed by the Earth, causing surface temperatures to rise. Therefore, the density of the surface waters will decrease, which means there is a greater

Then I thought if people became more aware of there destruction, they were causing to the beach, would they ever try to reverse what has happened. Because I know, I would try to if I could. I’ve seen from several sources online that some people are trying to fix the problem, but are being unsuccessful because the population around the beaches is growing along with more tourism and they don’t have enough people or recourses to clean and fix. So the beaches and oceans are becoming more polluted, and contributing to global warming. And global warming is changing the temputure like the EPA states, (the impact of climate change are likely to worsen problems that coastal areas already face). For example, the Gulf of Mexico and Chesapeake Bay, are
