- What is desertification? (In regards to Physical Geography)arrow_forwardWhat is the monthly NPP during the growing season for each forest type? Annual Net primary production for boreal forest is 8, temperate forest 13, tropical is 20. Growing seasons in order are 3 mon, 6 mon and 12 months.arrow_forwardWhich of the following is inconsistent with the idea of making rural areas more sustainable? restoration and maintenance of wetlands to lessen runoff and alleviate flooding increasing use of extensive irrigation techniques to nurture demanding crops planting of trees next to land used for agriculture to break the wind and protect the soil from erosion planting of native grasses to rebuild the soil use of cover crops to stabilize the soil between growing seasonsarrow_forward

If there is a difference between optimal biologic rotation and economic rotation age, explain why. Where does the growth rate peak?arrow_forwardGiven these large-scale climate patterns based on latitude, what might you expect in terms of the global distribution of primary productivity (e.g. where might you expect greater plant productivity)? (Select all that are true.) Higher productivity near equator because of more direct solar radiation. Higher productivity near equator because of overall more precipitation. Bands of lower productivity near 30° N and S because of drier air. Bands of lower productivity near poles because of drier air.arrow_forwardWhat are some of the primary causes of desertification?
