Prereading

climate
Our earth is made up of different geological features. These features sometimes determine the climate, and thus the lifestyle and agriculture of an area due to the typical weather. To begin, we will discuss features that are created with salt water. There are two main types; standing water and running water. Both types are incredibly important for life on earth.

Geological Features

tidal
The largest body of standing water is an ocean. The ocean is made up of saltwater and is found on 71 percent of the earth’s surface. The ocean has a tidal rhythm that is controlled by the moon. At times oceans can have enormous, powerful waves and other times, the water rolls gently onto and off of the shore. An ocean is similar to a sea, but a sea is smaller and is often found where an ocean meets land.
connects
In areas where salt water and land meet, there are many other geographical features. A bay occurs when the water is contained by the land on 3 sides and creates a semi-circle of water. This water is often calm and a great place to go swimming. You can find a straight where water has to pass between two pieces of land and connects the bodies of water on either side.
harbour
A gulf is a deep inlet of the sea, meaning that the water is surrounded by land, with a very narrow mouth to connect it to the larger sea. Gulfs are generally bigger than bays and have a much smaller opening. Gulfs are often used for shipping and may contain harbors for trade boats to dock. Global shipping has caused an increase in our need for harbours around the world.

Many products are made with parts that come from all over the world. This has to an increase in the shipping industry. This increase that we now need more ships and harbors to deliver goods across the water. The increase has also in more lorries on the road to deliver the goods across land. Overall, the shipping industry has an increase in pollution as well.
