external geological agents
external geological agents are responsible for the modification of land relief from the effects of external geological processes.
water, which acts in several ways:
Rain, eroding the soil and pulling out little pieces that are drawn. Rivers
, wearing the mountains are born and formed gullies and canyons. Ice
, as the temperature drops the rain-soaked rocks are frozen and the water from its cracks, the increase in volume (ice), press on them until the fracture. Mares
, waves erode the softer rocks of the projections coastal and ocean currents that are dragging sand beaches.
Rainwater that seeps into the interior can dissolve some of the limestone to form large cavities, called caves and underground rivers.
The wind , drag small pieces of land as the rocks hit the wear (erosion)
The vegetation , break rocks with their roots or down the mountain soil preventing it from being swept away by the rains. The man
, whose activity changes and changes the landscape.
Weathering is the disintegration and decomposition of rock at the surface or close to it as a result of exposure to the elements, with the participation of biological agents.
WEATHER: Influence of different variations from one region to another land. With changes in land cover, precipitation, freeze-thaw action
lithologic factors: Influence rocks and presence of fractures and joints in rocks
TYPES OF WEATHERING
mechanical weathering: the physical disintegration of rock fragments due to temperature changes, moisture and biological activity.
After mechanical weathering acting agents, surfaces created by the different fragments are disposed to action ...
Chemical weathering is the chemical transformation of the rock causing the loss of coherence and rock alteration. The most important processes are the atmospheric water vapor, oxygen and carbon dioxide. Processes that act
in mechanical weathering
Lajamiento : Formation of joints close to each other
Termoclastia consisting of rock fragmentation due to sudden temperature changes. The expansion and contraction caused by changes in temperature cause stress in the rocks that break eventually.
To produce this break abrupt changes are needed in very short periods of time as those that occur in arid deserts, but also rocks allow color and texture and decrease absorption of heat radiation.
also must have a mineral composition that allows differences expansion and contraction, so that tensions are effective.
Gelifracción or crioclastia
consists of rock fragmentation due to the stresses produced by freezing and thawing of water in the holes making the rock. The increased volume that produces frozen water acts as a wedge, which eventually break up the rock ...
This means that for gelifracción work is necessary to have frequent freeze-thaw cycles that occur in the mid-latitude periglacial type processes. At high latitudes with glacial-type processes such alternations do not occur, as the freezing period lasts for months. Http://feedjit.com/join/

General Dynamics Atmospheric
The atmospheric circulation is determined by:
constant temperature difference that exists between Ecuador and the poles
Earth's rotation.
The presence of masses.
This raises three belts
equatorial low pressure belt ITCZ \u200b\u200b
subtropical belt high pressure
subpolar low pressure belt
equatorial low pressure belt (ITCZ)
is a belt of low pressure girdling the globe in the equatorial region. Is formed by the convergence of warm, moist air from latitudes above and below the Ecuador ...
subtropical high pressure belts
Ecuador hot air, rises and moves north and south, forming the
antitrades WINDS.
.- This produces lots of clouds and precipitation in Ecuador year-round.
.- This rising air cools and descends, moving through the area from the tropics to Ecuador, from East to West. Are the trade winds.
subpolar low pressure belt
Westerly winds from the warm subtropical belt are in contact with colder from areas cause polar precipitation.
ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE
pressure is the atmospheric air at any point in the atmosphere.
The atmospheric pressure at a given location experiences variations associated with weather changes ...
Moreover, at a given location, atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude, because the total weight of the atmosphere above a point decreases as we rise. The Atmospheric pressure decreases at a rate of 1 mmHg or Torr for every 10 m elevation in the levels close to the sea.

Layers of Earth's atmosphere and temperature
The temperature of the Earth's atmosphere varies with altitude. The relationship between altitude and temperature is different depending on the atmospheric layer considered:

Mesosphere: 50 - 80/90 km, temperature decreases with altitude.
Thermosphere and Ionosphere: 80/90 - 600/800 km, temperature increases with altitude.
Exosphere: 600/800 - 2.000/10.000 km
