Geography summer exam need to revisers

formation of a spit

formed from sand through a process called longshore drift along the coast line.

factors that create a microclimate

topography, vegetation, water bodies, urbanization, and soil composition, which create localized climate variations

relief rainfall

occurs when moist air is forced to rise over elevated terrain, cooling and condensing to produce precipitation

frontal rainfall

occurs when warm and cold air masses meet, causing the warmer air to rise, cool, and condense into precipitation

convectional rainfall

occurs when the sun heats the Earth's surface, causing warm air to rise, cool, condense, and produce heavy, often localized rainfall.

air masses that influence the weather in the British Isles

Tropical Maritime, Tropical Continental, Polar Maritime, Polar Continental, and Arctic Maritime

explain the conflicts between different interest groups in National Parks
