ARE

When the eye of the tropical cyclope

·was directly over the western part of the Colony, guạty: strong winds with an average speed of over 60 knots would blow from the north-saaterly direction. In fact tha weather chart indicates north-easterly wind with a speed of 70 knots was expori- " venced in Hong Kong. ). The Barometer recorded

a pressire of only 994 mbe. Accompanying the strong wind is heavy and torrential rain especially bordering the centre of the typhoon

(II) Sedimentary rock- they are formed

by the compaction and cementation of sand, pebbles and other frag- mente derived from pre-existing rocks. The sedimentary rocks are) commonly stratified and contain fossils as well as coal and petrom. leum. Examples are shale, cong- lomerates.

(III) Netamorphic rock:- if the pre-~ existing country rocks suffered intense pressure e.g. during the formation of fold mountains on heating, then their structure and chemical properties may be altered. to form a new kind of rock termed metamorphic rock, Examples are pchiut, slate.

As the tropical cyclone moved inland, the speed of the wind may remain strong. and gusty but now it blowe from the southe western corner. Hainfall may decreas little and periods of overcasted sky.

Towards the latter part of the fore- cast period, with the storm completely in- land, the wind speed rapidly to less than about 30 knots with periods of shower only. The pressure rises very rapidly as the storm dissipates in the interiors (b) Explain briefly why the salinity of

the oceans is generally higher at approximately latitudes 30 N and 30 g than aither gear the Equator or at. latitudes 60 N and 60's.

Ang-

What other factors can cause variationa in salinity? (76)-

The salinity of the oceana is gener ally higher at approximately latitudes 30°N and 30 S because in this region if is under the influence of the trade wind which is warm and dry since they blow away from the continents. Aa high temperatures promote evaporation that leads to concen- tration of salts, the oceans at the trade wind latitudes are thus more saline than the equatorial and polar seas.

The polar oceans experience very low annual temperature and so the rate of. evaporation is reduced to a miniinum where- as the equatorial oceans receive a large amount of surface runoff from the rivers. and streams. These two factors account for the lower salinity encounters in these two regions.

Besides the above mentioned factors, the amount of melting ics, the rate of mixing, which is in turn governed by Doean ourrents also cause variations in salinity.

The tropical aavana woodland and the cool temperate woodland are both cal- led deciduous. Explain why sạch, them is daoiduous, and briefly. describe the characteristics ox these types of woodland,

Ans. The tropical savana woodland is deciâu ous because during the winter season whenI there is little or no rainfall, the trass have to shed their leaves to reduce the rate of transpiration. The umbrella-shaped orowne is another method to reduce the amount of moisture lost by sheltering the Foot system from the direct ray of the - sun

In the cool temperate belt, trees shed their leaves in winter in order to protect themselves against frost and to reduce the rate of transpiration..

The tropical savana woodland is 7 characterized by a "tall grase, low tree landscape and is often referad to aa savanna parkland. The trees are wedgem or umbrella-shaped, as a result of the strong winds that blow over the open grabsTM lando All the trees have special organs to adapt themselves to the winter drought.

In the sobi temperate woolland, there ajomall variety of trees, and stande of the same species are very common. Conifere replace deciduous trees in areas where the soil is not fertile, or in upland

group Undergrowth is common with climbing plants, the density of the under- growth depends on the spacing of the trees.

describe both the work of underground vater in a limestone region and the Features it produces.

Ang The work of underground water in a limestone region is mainly that of solu- tion and transportation, Since limestoni is soluble in acid, therefore, when rain- water which contains a slight amount of dissolved carbon dioxide passes through a limestone region, the surface rocks may be dissolved and transported to the underground. As a result, the surface is usually very irregular with numerous, furrOWB
