Clues to what ancient climates were like come from all of the following except for what?

Clues to ancient climates come from sources such as ice cores, sediment layers, tree rings, and fossilized remains. However, modern weather patterns do not provide direct clues about past climates, as they reflect current atmospheric conditions rather than historical data. Thus, modern weather patterns would not be a source of information regarding ancient climates.


Can Tortoises live anywhere else besides the desert?

Climates of tortoisesYes, they can. Tortoises such as the Herman's tortoise which is native to hotter climates such as the mediterranean and east turkey can 'adapt' to colder climates such as England - with a little help from modern technology. Heated cages called vivariums are used to house tortoises native to hotter climates, by mimicking the rough level of humidity and temperature.


What rates of evaporation exeed in dry climates?

In dry climates, rates of evaporation can exceed rates of precipitation. This occurs because the hot and arid conditions in dry climates increase evaporation, while limited moisture in the air results in lower chances of rain. This can lead to water scarcity and drought conditions in these regions.


What is the main difference between wet tropical climates and tropical wet and dry climates?

The main difference between wet tropical climates and tropical wet and dry climates lies in their rainfall patterns. Wet tropical climates, also known as tropical rainforest climates, receive high and consistent rainfall throughout the year, with minimal seasonal variation. In contrast, tropical wet and dry climates experience distinct wet and dry seasons, with significant rainfall during the wet season and a marked reduction in precipitation during the dry season. This results in different vegetation and ecosystems in each climate type.


Do highland climates change with elevation?

Yes, highland climates change with elevation. As elevation increases, temperatures tend to decrease, leading to cooler temperatures and potentially different precipitation patterns. This results in different climate zones, such as alpine climates at high elevations with colder temperatures and different vegetation types compared to lower elevations.
