Chile är världens mest långasmala land. Chile ligger i den södra tempererade zonen , det innebär att Chile har alla fyra årstider , vinter , vår , sommar och höst . Det ligger på det västra halvklotet och på den södra breddgraden alltså söder om ekvatorn , skillnaden mellan norra och södra delen av ekvatorn är skillnaden mellan årstider , ifall Sverige har vinter har Chile sommar. Chiles breddgrad ligger detsamma som med Sydafrika , Nya Zeeland och Australien. Jämfört med Sydafrika så är Chile kallare på grund av kalla havsströmmar vid kusten , men Chile har bara en kustlinje på grund av att Chile ligger granne med Argentina åt öst. De kalla havströmmarna påverkar Chile starkt , det gör landet kallt och väldigt torrt. Två väldigt bra exempel år Atacamaöknen i nordöstra Chile. Atacamaöknen är världens torraste öken på Jorden. Sedan spanjorerna kom till Chile har inte en droppe regn landat i vissa delar av Atacamaöknen. El Niño är en interaktion mellan jordens atmosfär och de tropiska haven i Stilla Havet. El Niño uppstår mellan 2 till 7 år och kan påverka klimatet runt om i världen , USA är ett bra exempel som har påverkats av El Niño , landets klimat har blivit fuktigare och vid vissa delar torrare. Chile drabbas oftast av jordskalv på grund av att landet ligger mitt i jordbävning området som sträcker sig längs Chile , inte bara på kusterna men genom hela landet. Chile ligger även mellan två kontinental plattor , vilket skapar stora jordbävningar , ett exempel på detta är jordbävningen år 2010. 214 människor förlorade livet ,jordbävningen uppstod runtom Santiago. Kraften av jordbävningen var 8,8 uppe i richterskalan , vilket är enormt. Jordbävningen var en av dem kraftigaste under 2010. . Chile har endast en kust jämfört med Aus... ... middle of paper ... ...llor. Jag har använt Chiles geografiska karta för att visa vart alla städer ligger och vart Atacmaöken finns. Jag har endast använt statliga källor plus en källa som inte är statligt ägd. http://landguiden.se http://ne.se http://globalis.se http://www.consulateofchile.se/ Anledningen till dessa källor är på grund av att de är statligt ägda och regeringen skulle inte skapa otrovärdiga källor bara för att. Den fjärde källan var jag tvungen att jämföra med och sedan använda. Av tre olika källor var den mer trovärdig och exakt än de andra. Källorna jag använde var bara för att hitta specifika saker så som urbanisering och klimat. Om jag ska skriva en uppsats , söker jag inte efter irrelevanta hemsidor som inte har ett dugg med det jag håller på med. Denna uppsats så som alla andra uppsatser kräver ordentliga källor som kan bevisa på ett exakt sätt.
The coastal plain is an arid, elongated stretch of land extending the entire length of the country and varying in wild from about 65 to 160 km. (about 40 to 100 mi) it is a northern extension of the Tacoma Desert of Chile. The plain has few adequate harbors. Most of the desert is so dry that only10 of the 52 rivers draining the Andean slopes to the Pacific Ocean have sufficient volume to maintain the flow across the desert and reach the coast. However, the coast is the economic center of Peru. Most of the Nation’s leading commercial and export crops grow in the 40 oases of the region.

Venezuela was one of the richest countries that emerged from the collapse of Gran Colombia in 1830 (the others being Colombia and Ecuador). For most of the first half of the 20th century, Venezuela was ruled by generally benevolent military strongmen, who promoted the oil industry and allowed for some social reforms. Democratically elected governments have held sway since 1959. Current concerns include: a polarized political environment, a politicized military, drug-related violence along the Colombian border, increasing internal drug consumption, overdependence on the petroleum industry with its price fluctuations, and irresponsible mining operations that are endangering the rain forest and indigenous peoples.
The competition starts to increase, with more than 30 to 40 companies, however Bergqvist’ company still partly remained its own position as it the first one in the region. As a member of local tourism industry, Bergqvist also entered restaurant business. He needed to have full time staff. However, he soon realized that his tourist business was just seasonal. It could make money in the summer; however, in winter no one would like to travel in cold and dark. The local tourist office even closed in the winter; therefore, this required Bergqvist having new ideas to help his company survive in the winter season. Bergqvist had thought about other winter destination as Alaska. They had many Japanese tourists. Bergqvist contacted with Scandinavian Tourist Board – a Swedish tourist company in Japan. He wanted to tourists from Japan as well as other countries to Sweden in the winter. After a trip to Hokkaido when they had the big ice festival, Bergqvist invited ice sculpture artist- Aoki to Sweden to create ice sculptures in
Ecuador is located in South America, on the Equator it also extends out to sea to the Galapagos Islands. The people of Ecuador speak Spanish, Quechua, and now English is starting to be part of the curriculum for students. Ecuador is the home to all my family, and possible the retirement place for my parents. This is all possible since Ecuador branched out of the Gran Colombia. Going even further into the past Ecuador did not just have one start on being what/where they are now. The history of Ecuador is said be divided into five different phases or eras: Pre-Colombian, The Conquest, The Colonial Period, The War of Independence and the Republican Era. These eras needed to happen so the place I call home could be what it is now. It also has gone through changed within the flag, which is used as a representation – or a symbol to show off were one is from. The people of the city also are the heart of it all, and with time they learn to adapt to new life and customs without losing the traditional ones. Ecuador has gone through many changes to get where it is now. The struggle has been hard for most but at the end the nations is a strong nation.

The image that is presented of Argentina in the 1880`s is not just critical one, the author is presenting a clear distinction between the countryman and the city man, two classes in one society. One being the city man of Buenos Aires, Cordoba and other towns and the other being the countryman or “gauchos” who lives in the surrounding plains or “Pampas”. Both a part of argentine culture but not participating equally in the progression of argentine society.
Every place, country, city, region has its own climate. Climate plays one of the important roles in people’s life. Climate is defined as the average weather, which means variety of weather conditions as rain, snow, hail, sun, and wind over period of time about 30 years that can be measured in any particular place.( IPCC Third Assessment Report - Climate Change 2001; editor:A.P.Baede) Climate change is a variation of average weather. There are 2 causes of climate change. The first is human activity which includes deforestation, burning fossil fuels, agriculture, transportation and infrastructure. The second is natural causes which include volcanic eruptions and variations in solar outputs. These causes have negative effect on the natural environment which leads to increasing of temperature, increasing in sea level, changing of precipitations, extremely weather, killing species of animals, birds, fish and plants. This essay will show that the causes of climate change have different effects on the environment. Atmospheric carbon dioxide variations, volcanic eruptions and solar outputs, have negative impacts on animals, plants, and environment.
Since 1960s both minimum and maximum temperatures have exhibited a rising trend; with minimum increasing by a range of 0.7-2.0 degrees Celsius and maximum by 0.2-1.3 degree Celsius varying by region and season. Notable also is variability of rainfall patterns such as below normal rainfall in the long rains season and more during the short rainfall season, some regions have recorded more intense rainfall and downpours that have resulted to floods and infrastructural impairments. Extinction or near extinction of flora and fauna, changes in flowering and maturity patterns in crops are all attributable to climate change. These changes have had and are expected to have far reaching impacts on the economic sectors of the economy. Some of the expected sectoral impacts are discussed
